As you can see in the above video this man had a long history of drunk driving arrests as those accused of DUI manslaughter commonly do. However, as his guilt seems a reality he would still be well advised to contact a DUI attorney to discuss his options; as would anyone accused of a drunk driving crime.

The below video is definitely worth a few laughs, but is quite realistic.

I can’t count how many times I’ve seen a suspect of DUI or other criminal offense try and evade police only to be caught and add to their charge(s). It’s ALWAYS best to comply with police, call an attorney in your area and let the criminal justice system work itself out.

Wow! I hate to admit it, but I can’t even do that sober. However, I would know not to admit being drunk after all that.

The lesson learned here is that you should never admit your guilt when suspected of DUI in Jacksonville or anywhere in Florida unless, of course, you want to be arrested and make avoiding a conviction much more difficult (yet not impossible). Not that I condone drinking and driving, but the best thing to in a situation like this is keep your mouth shut and get on the phone with a Jacksonville DUI attorney ASAP.

As you will see in the video this is not a Jacksonville checkpoint, but from Chicago Heights, IL. However, this is what we can expect from DUI checkpoints down in Florida as well:

Notice how the man in the leather jacket says, ” I had a couple.”, before he is, in turn, arrested. This is never a good idea from a legal standpoint. In addition to this he seemed to fail the sobriety tests and you can see he blew a .093 (over the .08 legal limit) in the breathalyzer. You may think this arrest is an open and shut conviction, but think again. A DUI attorney could help him protect his rights.

Florida DUI Checkpoints – The 3 Minute Rule

The state of Florida concedes that DUI checkpoints are constitutional and valid. The Supreme Court acknowledges that DUI checkpoints do in fact constitute a “seizure” relative to the Fourth Amendment yet are constitutionally acceptable with evident effectiveness and minimal intrusion. Hence the three minute rule where every vehicle that enters a designated checkpoint site cannot be detained in traffic for more than three minutes. In the event of exceeding the three minute time allowed, the officer in charge must temporarily suspend the diversion of vehicles into the checkpoint lanes and begin a systematic selection of vehicles to be stopped at the discretion of the checkpoint commander. Vehicles will then proceed back into the checkpoint lanes when the period becomes less than three minutes.

As you will see in the Video below a women is arrested for drunk driving after she miserably fails here field sobriety tests:

While a police officer will rarely tell you this, you have the right to refuse a field sobriety test in Florida. If the officer is not equipped with a breathalyzer and you refuse the field sobriety tests they must decide if their “observations” amount to sufficient probable cause for an arrest. If you have been accused of drunk driving in Florida you have the right to a trial.

Much of the time when authorities arrest Jacksonville citizens for drunk driving they didn’t have right to do so in the first place according to the constitution. If you intend to yield a not guilty verdict from your DUI charge you would be well advised to contact a Jacksonville DUI attorney at Musca Law to defend you.
