    Arizona DUI Survival Guide: Your Rights During A Traffic Stop

    Accessing Your License, Registration & Insurance Safely

    If you are pulled over for a DUI, be sure to know where to find your license, registration, and insurance. This will speed up the process and will help prevent any additional charges. It is always a good idea to have these in an accessible place so that when you’re pulled over, the adrenaline and possible intoxication does not impact your ability to find them.

    Understanding Your Right To Silence & Refusal Of Tests

    Do not answer any questions from law enforcement when you’re pulled over. You can politely inform them that you wish to remain silent until your lawyer is present. Additionally, it is helpful to know that you are not required to take the field sobriety tests. Sometimes our lawyers suggest avoiding the tests to prevent additional evidence from being added to your case.

    Informing Officers Of Relevant Medical Conditions

    Tell the law enforcement officers about any medical conditions you might have. This can give them helpful information when administering tests or asking questions. Sometimes medical conditions can present behaviors that seem like intoxication. By being honest with your medical condition, you may be able to experience a more favorable outcome.

    Your Right To Refuse Portable Breath Tests (PBT)

    You do not have to take the portable breath tests, and in some cases our lawyers recommend refusing them. Refusal can prevent the initial evidence from being added to your case. If you do refuse, you will be arrested and taken in for a blood test at the station. You can request an independent one at this time as well, which can be more accurate.

    Frequently Asked Questions About DUI

    There are several reasons you may choose to refuse a breathalyzer test, but you must keep in mind that doing so could come with consequences. If you have a medical condition that might be aggravated by blowing into a breathalyzer, or you believe that there is weak evidence, or no probable cause for the test, you could feasibly refuse. However, in Arizona, refusing a breath test if you are being pulled over for drunk driving could result in a driver’s license suspension for up to 12 months. This is possible because when you get a driver’s license in Arizona, you are giving implicit consent to be tested. If you believe you have a reason to refuse a breath test, be sure to get in contact with one of our attorneys immediately.

    For those that have a diverse license in a state other than Arizona, but are suspected of a DUI in Arizona, your driver’s license most likely will be affected which is why it is important to get in contact with our lawyers at My AZ Lawyers right away. Most states operate under an Interstate Driver License Compact which allows the states to communicate with each other about traffic violations, DUI arrests, and DUI convictions. Each state has rules on how they handle out-of-state offenses, but most will at least follow the suspicion. Some will give you penalties right away while others will wait for a conviction. A lawyer can help you determine the specific laws in your state.

    A DUI can affect your professional licenses or employment in many different ways, especially if you work in fields like healthcare, law, education, and transportation. In some cases, your professional licenses could be taken away or you may face suspension. In other jobs, you will be seen as breaking ethical standards and not maintaining good moral character which could lead to reduced responsibility. When it comes to looking for new jobs, many employers do background checks and will see your DUI conviction on your record. You may be passed over for jobs that you would have easily gotten before. All of these impacts are dependent on how serious the charge was, and whether or not it was your first offense. A DUI lawyer can help reduce your charges or even avoid a conviction altogether making them a valuable asset when you’re facing allegations.

    In Arizona, it is unlikely that you would ever get your DUI expunged from your record. Most DUIs stay on the record permanently. However, it is possible to have it set aside under specific conditions. Setting aside a judgment is not expungement, but rather more like a dismissal of charges. The DUI will still be evident on your record, but it will be noted that the judgment was set aside. To do this, you must complete all aspects of your judgment, including probation, fines, alcohol education classes, etc. Whether or not you can have your judgment set aside will depend on the circumstances of your case, the local court, and the help of a qualified attorney.

    Arizona has very strict laws when it comes to DUI charges. How serious your consequences are depends on how many offenses you have had. For a second DUI offense that happens within 7 years of the first, you are required to do jail time of 30-90 days as well as pay any fines, complete community service, go through alcohol screening and counseling, install an ignition interlock device, and your license will be suspended for 1 year. For a 3rd offense in the 7 year time frame, you will be convicted with a felony which includes all of the above penalties, but with longer jail time. For any subsequent offenses that are done within any time frame, you will be given a felony and have even more severe penalties. In addition to all of this, you will have all of the DUIs on your permanent record which will have penalties for you in everyday life.

    Yes! Of the entire United States, Arizona has some of the most strict laws and punishments when it comes to DUIs. The state puts a great priority on public safety. If you are arrested for a DUI in Arizona, you could face jail time, fines, mandatory alcohol education, and the installation of an ignition interlock device. For each consecutive offense, your penalties will get more and more severe. In addition to strict penalties, Arizona has sobriety checkpoints to ensure those that are on the road are driving safely. A DUI in Arizona is not a candidate for expungement either so if you are arrested for one, it will be on your record permanently.

    DUIs are not just for alcohol, but also for drugs including prescription medications, that may impair your ability to drive. If you are pulled over for a DUI, but have no alcohol in your system, you may be subject to a field sobriety test which will determine if you are impaired. An arrest could follow if you seem impaired, even if it’s by drugs. When it comes to enforcement, drugs and alcohol are treated the same. Refusing to be tested for drugs leads to similar consequences as refusing a breathalyzer test. However, if you believe you were arrested for a DUI and you had no alcohol or drugs in your system, you should get in contact with an expert DUI lawyer right away who can help create a defense and ensure that you are not unjustly convicted.

    Getting out of an arrest because the officer did not read your Miranda Rights may or may not work. An officer is required to read you your Miranda Rights when you are in custody and before you are interrogated. If the Miranda Rights were not read to you, it is possible that the statements you made will not be able to be used in court. However, while it changes whether or not statements can be used, it changes nothing about your arrest itself. Neither does a lack of reading these rights lead to any dismissal of charges. If you find yourself in this situation where you were not read your Miranda Rights, inform your DUI attorney who can determine how this defense can be used in your favor.

    The state of Arizona does not allow for expungement, so a DUI will stay on your record permanently. However, the charge will only stay relevant for 7 years. This means that if you get a second DUI within the 7 years, the penalties will be significantly harsher. You can have your DUI set-aside instead of expunged which means your sentence will be marked as complete and you will have a better chance at getting housing and jobs. However, it will remain visible on your record, just marked as “set-aside”. For more information on your DUI charge and how it affects your record, reach out to our attorneys.

    Yes, your DUI conviction will likely lead to much higher insurance premiums. On average, insurance premiums can increase between 70%-150% after a DUI. Some insurance policies may even cancel your insurance. Because the charge will stay on your driving record for 7 years, the impact on your insurance can last up to 7 years or more. Some insurers will provide the ability to take a driving course to reduce your premiums. However, your best chance at reducing the premiums is to keep a clean record.
