If a law enforcement officer suspects that you are driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol due to speeding, erratic driving or other factor, you will be pulled over. You may have certain "field sobriety tests" administered by the officer. You will also be asked to take a breathalyzer test. If your test, which measures blood alcohol concentration (BAC) registers at .08% or above, you will be arrested and charged with DUI, or drunk driving. If you refuse the BAC test, your license will be automatically suspended and the DUI penalties enhanced. Your use of the driver's license includes the implied consent to be tested for alcohol.

Chattanooga DUI Lawyer

There is no test that is completely flawless and without error. Field sobriety tests are based on the observation of law enforcement and are not a scientific test. The BAC testing equipment has specific maintenance to keep it tested and in working order. There are many cases where the breathalyzer testing instrument was found to be faulty. In such cases, an individual charged with DUI may have not consumed any alcohol at all. Investigation of the circumstances of your arrest is the job of a dedicated and aggressive DUI lawyer.

There are various legal approaches to any drunk driving charge. It is crucial that you talk to Tennessee DUI defense attorney Marcos Garza and determine what can be done in your case. Your future freedom may depend upon it.
