DUI Unlawful Police Stops
The initial police stop is an important part of any Tennessee DUI case. In order to pull you over, law enforcement must have observed some behavior that indicated intoxication, such as speeding, driving too slowly or swerving or violation of the law, or impairment. Swerving within a lane is not enough to warrant a police stop. In some cases, law enforcement may not have "probable cause" to pull you over or may violate your rights or procedure in some way. A competent DUI defense attorney will know how to present this in your favor.
DUI defense lawyer Marcos Garza is here to help you with your case. If you were arrested for DUI after what you think may have been an unlawful police stop, a Chattanooga DUI defense lawyer Marcos Garza can thoroughly investigate your case and determine whether your rights were violated in any way. He may then be able to use this to your advantage both at your DUI hearing and in DUI court.
Following are some potential issues that an attorney can present in regard to your initial police stop:
· Were you actually displaying driving behavior that indicated impairment?
· Did the officer observe this behavior?
· Did you violate a traffic or other law?
· Did a civilian call in your driving behavior? Did the officer therefore never witness erratic driving or a violated traffic law?
· Were you driving as any reasonable driver would, given the current road and weather conditions?
