California has two basic driving under the influence laws, found in Vehicle Code section 23152,
sections (a) and (b):

23152(a): It is a misdemeanor to drive under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs.

23152(b): It is a misdemeanor to drive with .08% or more of alcohol in your blood.

Vehicle Code section 23153 states that the felony DUI provisions where an injury results from the drunk driving, while Penal Code sections 191.5 and 192 describe vehicular manslaughter where there is a death. You have that police often disregard.

There must be legally sufficient facts to establish probable cause, to stop, detain, and arrest you.

Submission to field sobriety testing and portable field breath is not required by law.

If you are arrested, they must state your constitutional rights- called a Miranda warning- before any further questioning commences.

You must be given a choice of breath or blood testing, and if refused you must be advised of the implied consent.

If a breath test is administered at the police station, a blood sample must also be taken so that there is evidence saved for later testing by a defense attorney.

By law, an individual is not required to answer any questions that could incriminate them. An individual is allowed to ask to speak with an attorney before answering any questions. If you do state that you have been drinking, you are putting yourself in a dangerous position.

Driving Under the Influence ( DUI ) in California is usually considered a criminal offense, and a DUI arrest can have a serious affect on your life if handled improperly. Being charged with a misdemeanor DUI or DWI or drug charge in California could mean jail time or loss of your driver's license and should be taken seriously. The Law Offices of Robert B. Hakim can help you through the court process.

Another factor to consider if convicted of a DUI in California is your insurance company. Your insurance company will usually either raise your rates significantly or cancel your policy completely. If your insurance policy is cancelled or not renewed, you will still be able to find insurance, but your rates will most likely be higher. Your DUI conviction will also stay on your driving record for 10 years, making it harder for you to obtain auto insurance.

Consequences

here are many consequences to getting a seatbelt or speeding ticket. Payment of the fine is not enough to deal with the issue. Points will be placed on your driving record for almost all driving infractions. These points accumulate and can result in the suspension or loss of your license. A single violation can cause you to lose your driver's license. Securing proper legal representation is the best way to defend yourself against a ticket and ensure that the consequences of your ticket affect your driving privileges as little as possible.

Insurance Rates

Hiring counsel to help present your defense is the best way to assure a victory.
