In Norcross, you can be charged with drunk driving if your blood alcohol content (BAC) is 0.08 percent or higher. For drivers under the age of 21, the legal limit is 0.02 percent.
While there are some people who say that your case cannot be beaten if your BAC is over the legal limit, this is not true. There are many reasons that your results could exceed this legal limit. Medications or physical and dental ailments may cause a false reading. There may also be a problem with the breath testing equipment.
Your case may also be dropped if the arresting police officer did not have probable cause to pull you over.
As you can see, there are many ways to successfully defeat a DUI charge. Just remember, it takes an attorney who is experienced with DUI defense to get you out of a conviction.
The penalties for a conviction are severe. You will be ordered to spend time in jail and pay steep fines. You may also be stuck with probation, in addition to a lengthy driver’s license suspension.
Your insurance rates will also go up. There is a possibility that you may lose your job if a clean driving record is required for employment or if your employer objects to a criminal history.
