Need some information about California DUI Laws? An arrest for driving under the influence (DUI) occurs when law enforcement personnel have a suspicion that a person is under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs. Suspicions by law enforcement, usually, arise when police officers witness either dangerous driving or clear violations of traffic signs or laws. Once a person is stopped by law enforcement, that person will be questioned by the investigating officer.  If after questioning the officer feels that additional investigation is required due to a suspicion of
drunk driving, that officer may ask the driver to perform a variety of field sobriety tests, along with breath/blood tests to determine BAC (blood alcohol concentration).

DUI Penalties

 

Driving under the Influence (DUI) is one of the most common violations in the Los Angeles area. The law provides for an arrest if a person’s blood alcohol level was 0.08% or greater (California Vehicle Code Section 23152 (b)). Moreover, the law allows law enforcement to arrest a person if
a suspicion exists that a person is not in any condition to drive because he/she had alcohol and/or drugs in your system (California Vehicle Code Section 23152, et seq.).

The second step in the analysis is to investigate the validity of the scientific evidence. Our DUI lawyers will conduct aninvestigation into whether the breath or blood sample was accurately measured by the police.
Due to improper use, poor calibration, poor maintenance, or negligent laboratory procedures, the results that the measuring devices the police use can prove unreliable results.
