DUI lawyer | Know What to Do When Stopped for a DUI<\/span><\/h1>\n

DUI lawyer | <\/span><\/a>It is imperative to fully understand the situation in the event of a DUI traffic stop. The police officer who intends to stop you is already compiling evidence against you even before they turn on their sirens, signaling for you to stop. Their police report will indicate everything you do from the moment they saw you and suspected that you may be under the influence. <\/span>Take our advice, straight from a DUI lawyer. <\/span><\/p>\n

When the police signal you to pull over, find a safe place to stop your vehicle, like a parking lot, or to the side of the road, far enough away from busy traffic to keep everyone safe. Do not continue to drive while you look for the most ideal spot to stop, unless absolutely necessary. You should stop immediately once you notice you are being stopped. <\/span><\/p>\n

Remember to obey all traffic laws, including using your turn signal properly, minding the speed limit, and staying within your lane. Once you have stopped, be mindful to not make any sudden movements. Keep your hands on the wheel and sit there until the officer comes to your window. Follow the officer\u2019s instructions and answer their questions to the best of your ability without incriminating yourself. <\/span><\/p>\n

Remember your rights: You do not have to submit to a field sobriety test or a breathalyzer test. You may politely refuse and state that is your right to do so. However, the officer may detain you to take you in for a chemical test that they will administer at the police station. You also may refuse this test, but it will result in an automatic six-month suspension of your driver\u2019s license, and you can still be arrested for a DUI or DWI regardless of your refusal. To best defend your case,<\/span> most of the time a DUI Lawyer will recommend<\/span> that you comply with the chemical test, regardless of the outcome. <\/span><\/p>\n

If you are arrested, follow the officer\u2019s <\/span>instructions<\/span> and call <\/span>a DUI lawyer<\/span> as soon as you are able so that <\/span>they<\/span> can begin working on your case immediately. <\/span><\/p>\n

If you need legal help with a DUI<\/span>, <\/span>call <\/span>The law office of Peter David Brown<\/span><\/a> at <\/span>843-971-0099<\/span> and set up a consultation today. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
