Anyone who represents himself represents a fool. That's why you make sure to take your defense attorney out to go drinking with you, and be his ride. At worst you'll get a suspended license, and that's a heck of a lot better than a DUI

Never take a field sobriety test. Never take a blood or urine test. Don't answer any questions that can incriminate you. They may take your license but if you get a good lawyer you can possibly beat that at your DMV hearing. I know this is true. I've beat mine.

OK, so your license can be suspended just for refusing the chemical testing... So, what is the benefit of refusing? Is the benefit that a lawyer might get you off on some technical issue? And if that doesn't work, what happens? Perhaps your insurance won't go up because you were not actually convicted? I'm guessing most insurance companies will raise your rates just because you refused testing, unless the charges are somehow dropped. Trust me, I'm not trying to be a wise guy, just trying to understand how all these refusals might play out.

one note for those of us living in Oregon: if you refuse to take a breathalyzer test, IMMEDIATELY, you're going down to the station, they pull your blood for a test, and you automatically lose your license for 6 months. This is what WILL happen if you refuse the breathalyzer test. Whether it's your 1st or 31st dui.

Ive been accused by police at a dui checkpoint of drinking and driving and the cop said "the smell of alchohal is pouring out of this car" and asked me to do a field sobriety test, i said absolutely not , then was detained for about 45 minutes and asked multiple times and phrased it multiple ways if im free to go...waiting for a "certified" officer to show up to do a breathalyzer, i blew .00 three to five times in their breathalyzer, then their tones changed real quick, calling me sir, apologizing for the misunderstanding.

What he didn't explain is that you cannot be found guilty of drunk driving if you do what he explained. Though you will lose your license for a while in some states for not doing the tests. When you get your license back your insurance will not go up. You have not been found guilty of drunk driving. If you are found guilty you will lose your license and when you get it back your insurance will be raised for years to come.

😂the best way to beat a DUI is to beat the PC. That's a long shot with a good lawyer but that's all you have. Nobody can force tests but any other objective symptoms will then lead to breath blood or urine test. Refusal now isn't an option other than automatic suspension. So refuse a test and you lose your license. Great idea.

I know almost everything is against you. If you refuse the test there are punishments defined in some states. Aside from refusing can you request the test from your primary care physician? Or to take the test at a time of your choosing? Say 6h later, the next day etc? In Oregon I don't see any requirement of a time frame on when the test is performed or any requirement that you consent to have the police or government administer the test. As a medical procedure I believe I have certain rights to privacy.

I see a lot of KZbin videos regarding what to do if pulled over and you've been drinking. But what if you don't drink at all and get pulled over? The cop will take one look at me and never believe I don't drink. So then what? I won't agree to do field sobriety tests. At my age (71) and my bad knees, I would never pass. But what about a breathalyzer? I don't drink alcohol, EVER, so theoretically I should easily pass. But should I refuse? And if so, why?

Couple of questions: 1. When he asks if you’ve been drinking - why not just say no and avoid raising even further suspicions. 2. When you refuse all these tests - you get to simply go home ; albeit with a potentially suspended license for a long time ? So it’s a choice between a DUI conviction ( possibly) and a suspended license ? Just want to be clear on why you’re saying. If I haven’t been drinking at all - and you refuse all these tests , I will be rewarded with a suspended license ? How does make sense ? I’m missing somthing- your video just abruptly ends smh 🤦

Sooo... If you've had one drink during dinner out and get pulled over, the recommendation is to claim the fifth and refuse all tests. This means accepting the 180 day suspension. Seems pretty harsh. One drink shouldn't put you over the limit, but because these tests are so inaccurate, this lawyer implies we shouldn't take the chance. Of course, we have the option to hire a good lawyer and maybe we are found not guilty. Maybe not. Call me cynical, but the only winner in this case is the lawyer with this advice.

Take the chemical test. Refusal almost certainly will bring about a suspension of your license. If you didn’t take the test, you can’t challenge the calibration or the method of application. All you can do is wait for the Court to decide how long your license should be suspended. I am also a lawyer and I would advise you NOT to do the field tests but DO take a Breathalyzer test.
@justadbeer
@justadbeer Жыл бұрын
Understood. But if a cop askes you to take a field sobriety test, he has already made up his mind you're drunk and going to jail. For this same reason, I would refuse the breath test. Any idea how many people out there are driving to work with a suspended license? The trades are full of them, especially back when I started. People still have to make a living, and they are still going to drive to work license or no license. Also, laws vary from state-to-state. My state (MI) has an implied consent law and for those reading this that don't know what that means, it means that by accepting a drivers license in my state, you also consent to chemical tests from police officers who suspect that you are driving under the influence. It only applies "after" an arrest. You can refuse the preliminary test in the field and will get a $150 fine, period. But if you refuse the secondary back at the station, 6 points are automatically added to your license and you get a 1 yr suspension. They can also get a warrant to draw blood if they want and then you'll have no choice. I don't know what lawyers charge these days, but it cost my buddy 5k back in the mid 80's to get out of his drunk driving fiasco. Personally, I'd take the suspension. Best to just not drink and drive.

But, the best protection against having to suffer the consequences of a DWI conviction is....don't drink and drive. Great legal advice though. Though I support our police officers 100%, never, never, never talk to the police. They are not there questioning you because they like you, care about you, or want to give you a break. Also realize, it is absolutely legal for the police to lie to you. So all of that "Just be honest with me and I can work with you". Yeah, "working with you" will add up to you in hand restraints in the back of a patrol car. Look up the video "Shut the f*ck up lawyers", and they will tell you everything you need to say to law enforcement when they begin questioning you. lol.

I got pulled over for drunk driving once, late at night. It was a younger female officer, maybe a rookie. She asked if I had been drinking, and I said no (which was true). She said I was weaving and driving slowly, was I sure I hadn't been drinking? I said yes, I'm sure. She let me go. In that situation, I don't think it would have been better for me to refuse to answer, and it certainly would not have been in my best interests to refuse all chemical tests. However, the advice in this video assumes you HAVE been drinking.
