When an individual has been stopped by law enforcement and
charged with a DUI offense, many people do not realize they
are being charge with a crime, and even a first time
offender may face potential incarceration.
An individual may not only be charged for a DUI (Driving
under the Influence) if they are operating a motor vehicle
with a blood alcohol content of .08% (blood to alcohol
ratio) or higher, but also if they are found to be under the
influence of illegal or prescription drugs, or other
substances which may impair ones ability to safely operate a
motor vehicle.
When determining if an individual who has been pulled over
for suspicion of being under the influence of drugs or
alcohol is a process which is subject to the general
perception of the law enforcement officer. Field sobriety
tests are inherently designed to make you fail. They employ
movements and bran teasers which many sober individuals may
fail.

If arrested for a DUI offense, you only have 10 days from
the date of the DUI arrest to request an administrative
hearing with the department of motor vehicles. At this point
you may request to be granted hardship driving privileges
while you are involved in the legal process of defending
yourself against DUI charges.
According to Florida Statute 316.193(2)(a)-(b), the
penalties for a DUI conviction may be as little as 30 days
in county jail and/or a $500.00 fine, to as much as 5 Years
in Prison and/or $5000.00 fine. If the DUI offense is
associated with property damage, serious injuries or the
loss of life of another, the charges may include even more
severe charges, such as DUI Vehicular Manslaughter which
carries a maximum prison sentence of 15 years; 30 years if
the accused left the scene.
Being charged with a DUI Offense does not always mean a
conviction will follow. Your best chance to have a
