DUI Overview
In the state of California, it is illegal to operate a motor vehicle while impaired
by drugs and/or alcohol. It is also illegal to operate a motor vehicle with
a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% or higher. If a person drives while
impaired by drugs and/or alcohol, or drives with a blood alcohol concentration of
0.08% or higher, he/she can be charged with driving under the influence (DUI) by
California law enforcement.
Each year, nearly 200,000
people are arrested for DUI in California. The mistake that many of
these people make is taking their DUI charges too lightly. If a person is
convicted of DUI, he/she may have to spend time in jail, pay large fines, and attend
DUI School. Additionally, people who have been charged with DUI stand to lose
their driving privileges. With the consequences being so risky, people cannot
afford to take their DUI charges lightly.
Once a person has been charged with DUI, he/she needs to make sure that his/her
rights are preserved and that he/she receives direction from a qualified DUI defense
attorney. A DUI defense attorney can review the person’s situation and
provide the person with valuable legal insight that could positively impact the
outcome of the person’s case. If you have been charged with DUI,
do not hesitate to seek legal representation from a skilled DUI lawyer.
