The law does not discriminate when it comes to drunk driving

On Behalf of | Jan 5, 2015 | Drunk Driving |

The importance of having a designated driver if you plan on consuming alcohol cannot be overstated. Even if you believe that you can hold your alcohol better than most people, and even if being over the legal limit does not affect you in any way, you could still be arrested for drunk driving. The law does not discriminate based on your alcohol tolerance or your ability to drive even with alcohol in your system.

If you know or even suspect that you are going to be drinking, it is highly advisable that you not attempt to drive yourself home. You may think that you will just drive extra safe, but the truth is that you could get pulled over for any number of things, such as a busted tail light, and if the officer detects alcohol, you could be charged with drunk driving.

Even if you are not over the legal limit, you could still be charged with drunk driving depending on the circumstances. For example, if the breath test machine is not properly calibrated, it may seem that you are more intoxicated than you actually are. The same is true if a sobriety test is administered inappropriately. If you are wrongfully charged with drunk driving, it is imperative that you take your defense seriously.

You may think that because you were not actually drunk, you will have an easy time proving your innocence, but this is not always the case, especially if you are not familiar with Florida laws.
