Davis Law

I had a drink at family wedding dinner, first time drinking too. I waited for 2 hours and i thought i was sober enough to drive home because my house was 5 min. away from there. I drove really normal, and i got pulled over right in front of my apartment. The police officer has said i drove on the bike lane and then he asked "did i drink?". I said yes, one drink, two hours ago. He did all the tests, and when i blew in the machine it was 0.09. I didn't take any blood test. I'm UC student, i never had any tickets before, don't have any drinking problem. I was so depressed and scared. I want to be a nurse, and later they will check my background and the criminal record will show up. This criminal record will follow me for the rest of my life. I'm over 21.
Yes yes and yes! Even if you change it to a wet reckless it's better than a DUI! Call me with any questions....
I was cited for my first DUI in November 2011. At my arraignment a few weeks ago, I asked the judge for my indicated sentence and distinctly remember him ordering 72 day (6 week) DUI classes. I chose to hire a public defender, and my court date is approaching soon. However, I know that 72 day/6 week programs are for wet reckless' offenses, and a first DUI offense like mine should be a 3 month DUI class. Could this have been an error on his part? Or was he merely being lax because my BAC was 0.10%, near the 0.08% limit? I'm still hoping to be charged with a wet reckless. If I go to court and fail to get wet reckless, can they still order me to take the 3 month classes, even though the judge said it would've been a 72 day class?
Yes you can get 3 month program. You never pled. Speak to public defender.
I got a DUI last year and i have served my suspension and got my valid CA drivers license back. Would it be okay to be designated driver for people that have been drinking if I am completely sober? Would the police put me under extra scrutiny just because i have a prior offense? Is this legal? I have a friend that has never gotten a DUI and chose to be designated driver for a group of friends that had been drinking. She got pulled over and the smell of alcohol from the car was enough for the police to subject her to an entire battery of preliminary alcohol screening tests AFTER she blew a 0.00 on the breathalyzer.
It is absolutely okay for you to be a designated driver. All you need is your valid California driver's license....
Received both police reports back for the DUI I just received and they appear to be inconsistent and the sworn DS 367 filled out by one officer is inconsistent with his own unsworn narrative. The stop was due to speeding allegedly 55 in a 45 zone via pace; 2 officers in the same patrol car. Officer A. unsworn narrative reports he seen me moving at a high rate of speed approaching street A with Officer B being the driver. Officer B unsworn narrative reports he was the driver and he seen me approaching street B paced at 55. DS 367 sworn report filled out by Officer A says Officer A (yes not a typo Officer A) was driving and found me to be going 55 in a 45 zone. Shouldn't 3 reports be the same? Shouldn't the sworn report be the same as the narrative? I know I was not speeding. Should I fight
There are a lot of intricacies in DUI defense, but in short, inconsistent reports from police is a good start. The...
I got a DUI 2 years ago and recevied 3 years of informal probation. Is it ok for me to get medical marijuana license? What happens if I get caught with the marijuana?
You can certainly apply for one. These cases are still undetermined and different jurisdictions approach med. MJ cases...
Will this affect in court in any way? Do I have to notify the court? What will happen if I get caught by the police? My informal probation is the standard probation. (no driving, submit a chemical test if stopped by a poilce, attend dui classes, etc...) Nothing drug related restrictions.
It does not appear that your probation has specifically prohibited you from using medical marijuana. Make sure you do...
24 year old, 2nd DUI with probation violation. Said no to physical FSTs, PAS test .09 with breath test at station of .08 was not asked about sleep or eating pattern and was only pulled over for basic speed violation. I did unfortunately say I had zero drinks when asked, but the machine obviously proved this to not be true. I could afford a good attorney, but want to know realistically if a good attorney could beat this at trial or if I should just save my money and take a plea. Also, would the numerical result of the PAS be heard at trial? I think if the .09 PAS was heard at trial it would not be a good thing as that would eliminate most defense possibilities.
A to save money, you should hire an attorney for the different stages. You can hire an attorney up to trial and then...
