    You Have The Right to Refuse Certain Field Sobriety Tests

    Understand Your Right To Refuse Certain Tests

    When pulled over for a DUI, you have the right to refuse certain tests such as field tests and other sobriety tests. Our lawyers will often recommend doing so as the field sobriety tests can be subjective and your refusal can aid you in court. You will likely be arrested, however you refuse the tests if the officer notices other erratic behavior such as the way you were driving.

    Disclose Any Relevant Medical Conditions To The Officer

    Before undergoing any of the tests law enforcement will have you do, you should let the officer know about any medical conditions that could impair your ability to complete the tests. In doing so, your inability to complete the test can be attributed to your medical condition and it will be noted on your police report. The police report will then be helpful for a defense strategy.

    If you’re convicted with multiple DUIs in Arizona, you will likely be facing heftier penalties, especially if it’s your second DUI within 7 years. However, if it is a third DUI within 7 years, you will be charged with an aggravated DUI. If so, your aggravated DUI is a felony and will have more severe penalties including longer jail times, larger fines, longer probation periods, longer times with an ignition interlock device, and more. This is why a Mesa DUI lawyer is so essential as they can navigate the system and help you get the least amount of charges possible for your record. Or if you are charged, they can help negotiate a plea deal for reduced charges and penalties.
    You absolutely can as being arrested for driving under the influence also includes driving under the influence of drugs. So if you are arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol and no alcohol is detected, you will likely undergo other tests to see if you are under the influence of drugs. If you do have drugs in your system, you will be arrested for a drug DUI. This arrest will start the process of being charged and facing penalties. Your DUI lawyer can be a helpful resource to ensure your rights are protected and you don’t face penalties that you do not deserve.
    Before you are arrested for a DUI, there are no penalties for refusing a field test or a breathalyzer test. However, if you do so, you will likely have your license revoked and you may be arrested simply for driving erratically. That said, sometimes refusing field tests can be beneficial as they are often subjective. Refusing them can help build your defense in the future. However, after you are arrested, the rules change and there are penalties for refusing DUI tests. If you refuse a chemical test after you are arrested, you will likely face penalties including 12 months of license suspension. It is important you understand when you are able to refuse tests and when you should consent to them in order to benefit your case as much as possible. Your lawyer can help you understand the difference and what consequences you could face in each circumstance.
    Yes you can. In Arizona, when you receive a driver’s license, it is implied that you have consented to take a chemical test once you are arrested. If you refuse the chemical test, you will likely have your license suspended. Additionally, if you take the chemical test and your BAC is unlawfully high, your license will be suspended. In either case, if it is your first DUI, your license will be suspended for 12 months, for a second DUI in 7 years, your license will be suspended for 24 months. If you’re convicted of the DUI, you will have an additional 90 day suspension and a full year of having it revoked if it’s a second DUI. By working with our lawyers, we can help you fight to have your license suspended for less time or get a restricted license which allows you to drive to work and to medical appointments.
    In Arizona, you can be charged with either a felony or a misdemeanor when it comes to DUIs. If it is your first or second DUI, likely you will only have a misdemeanor on your record. However, if you are charged with an aggravated DUI, you will be facing a felony. Aggravated DUIs include being arrested for a third DUI within 7 years, driving while intoxicated with a minor in the vehicle, or refusing to install a required interlock ignition device. If you are faced with a DUI felony, the penalties are more severe and you will likely have a permanent criminal record. Contact our attorneys to help you navigate the legal system and for a strong defense that could help reduce your penalties and charges.
    If the officer does not read you your Miranda rights, it does not affect your arrest, you will still be arrested. Miranda rights are connected to asking questions and so if no questions are asked of you, it does not matter whether or not your Miranda rights were read. However, it is required of law enforcement to read your Miranda rights to you before asking you questions. If this does not happen, it is possible that the statements you made will not be admissible in court. If you’re unsure whether or not you were read your Miranda rights and how that will affect your case, contact our lawyers who will take a look at the situation and help create a strong defense based on the evidence.
    Yes, there is a legal limit in Mesa and it is the same limit that applies to the state of Arizona. The legal limit is 0.08% and if your blood alcohol content is 0.08% or higher, you can be arrested for a DUI. However, if you are a commercial driver, the legal limit is even lower at 0.04% and for underage drivers, there is a zero-tolerance policy. Meaning, if a minor has any alcohol in their blood, they can be arrested for a DUI. Being arrested for a DUI can affect your life in many ways so it is important that if you are arrested, you get in touch with a Mesa DUI lawyer right away!
