Six DUI Arrests Not in Cars

Comments

Barbie Car

Back in the Spring, Paul Hutton got arrested in England for driving a Toy Barbie car. He studies electric engineering and was performing an experiment with his son. I think it might’ve been to see if you can get a DUI in a Big Wheels.

Horse

In 2007, a woman was riding a horse through the streets of Sylvania, Alabama. As policed asked her to get off the horse, she kept trying to make the horse go faster. It worked to no avail. After she rammed the horse into a police car, she attempted to get off the horse to make a run for it. However, her foot got caught in the stirrup.

Walking a Bike

In many states you can get a DUI on a bike. However, there is also a case where a man in Ohio got a DUI for walking his bike across his own front lawn.

Motorized Bar Stool

Poor guy. He almost figured out a way to get home from the bar without driving. Yet, the second you are operating something motorized, you ARE driving. Sorry.

Holiday Float

In Columbia, South Carolina, a man was driving a holiday float and decided to pick up the speed and see if he could pass another float. Parades don’t work like that, buddy.

So, what can we learn with this? If you are drunk and are around some device that takes you from point A to point B, it’s best to avoid it all together. Find a designated driver.

What Are Miranda Rights?

Comments

I am sure you’ve heard the term Miranda Rights here and there, but you may not know exactly what they mean. Angie is our resident legal expert around here and whenever she explains a law to me, I always want to slap myself on the head and say,”Duh!” You’ll probably do the same thing after reading this post. Trust me.

You’ve heard a Miranda warning said time and time again in movies. Basically, Miranda Rights incorporate the 5th and 6th amendments and the police are required to remind you of them at the time of arrest (also known as the Miranda Warning.) The police officer tells you that you have the right to remain silent (5th Amendment) and the right to an attorney (6th Amendment.)

Police officers can be intimidating. Except for maybe him…

When you are pulled over and interacting with a non-Carl Winslow police official, your mind might go into panic mode. Officers will often subconsciously encourage you to speak by stating what he or she sees or describing the evidence that indicates you were doing something criminal. They’re not explicitly asking you questions, however. Therefore, a word of advice is to stay calm and know that you do not need to answer.

However, this does not mean you cannot state your name, provide your documentation and submit to a breath test. These three things do not fall under your Miranda rights.

Police officers are required to read or tell suspects of their Miranda rights. Additionally, they must get confirmation from the suspect that he or she understands their rights. Back in June, the Supreme Court passed Berghuis v Thompkins. This gives you the right to use your Miranda Rights even if the police officer has already begun interrogating you. This means that if you understand your Miranda rights and agree to questioning, you still have the right to stop answering questions mid-way through until you seek legal counsel.

Other Dumb Things You Can Do While Drunk that is Not Driving

Comments

If you or a friend has dealt with a DUI, you may at first believe that alcohol is the root of all evil. You will only make terrible mistakes while drinking alcohol and it should be something to avoid all together. If this is true for you, then it is important you stay responsible. If you or a friend is dealing with an alcohol addiction, please read my post about how to get help.

However, some people are able to drink and know better than to get behind the wheel. Plus, the urge to do something silly while intoxicated is as prevalent as the air we breathe. I was going to give you some tips of other silly things to do while drunk that doesn’t include driving, when I stumbled upon the site, Dead Drunk But Trying.

Dead Drunk But Trying is a reality webseries created by some guys in Iceland who get each other to compete in “weird” competitions while intoxicated. The first three episodes include assembling Ikea furniture (which, for me, is impossible to do even while sober), chess-boxing, and making a pizza.

I got in touch with the show’s host, Magnus, and was able to ask him a few questions about being safe while drinking, but also being able to have a good time.

RK: Do you guys take any safety precautions before you take on a task?

M: The only safety precaution we take is [the host/crew] being sober while the two drunk contestants compete. Instead of us being drunk at the same time, we’re just making sure they don’t hurt themselves. Also, we make sure they get a ride home after the show and have someone watch out for them. Usually they just fall asleep as soon as the competition is over.

RK: Where did you get the idea for this series?

M: We got the idea for our web series while sober, which is probably a shocker. One of my friends was putting together two identical IKEA cabinets and I just stopped him and told him to do it drunk and against someone else and 4 hours later we taped the first episode. After that the ideas poured out of people around us and we are foreseeing at least 3 more episode for the first series.

RK: What is your favorite part about doing the series?

M: The best part is probably getting recognized for something like this. I live in Iceland and we’re not that many here, only 300.000 inhabitants that live in Iceland, total. So, right after the first episode was published we got a bunch of calls from the local news media and I got recognized on the street as “The Dead Drunk but Trying dude!” So that’s probably the best part about doing these episodes.

RK: What things should you definitely NOT do while drunk?

M: You shouldn’t try to put together IKEA furniture, compete in Chess-boxing or bake pizzas – that’s for sure! But also we don’t recommend swimming in the ocean, doing heart surgery, having a baby, writing an essay or calling your mom. But on top of that we don’t recommend driving while drunk, let’s face it, that’s probably the stupidest thing you can do and the consequences can be devastating so I personally try to stay as far away from my car as I possibly can after the first beer.

Above all, the most important thing you can do while drinking is to ensure your safety. Make sure you have a trusted friend to take care of you if things get out of hand.

To check out some episodes of Dead Drunk But Trying, visit their website.

Lindsay Lohan, Substance Abuse, and You

Comments

So, I was going to write a news post about Lindsay Lohan to keep you abreast of her jail/out of jail situation. However, I am sure you already know what’s going on. Heck, my grandma knows what’s going on and she doesn’t even know what a TV is. (Okay, that’s a bit exaggerated but you get what I mean.)

Then, I began feeling bad for Lindsay Lohan. Mean Girls is one of my favorite movies and it is sad to watch a talent destroy herself.

That being said, there are many people who ruin what they have going for them because of substance abuse. Just because a famous addict is in the spotlight, does not mean we should ignore the millions of other people who struggle with addiction. We all have families and friends who care for us and don’t want us to ruin our lives.

For some people, get a DUI can be rock-bottom for them. For other people, it is different. Either way, if you have an ounce of concern about your alcohol intake following a DUI arrest, you are not the only one.

1800DUILaws.com has a list of substance abuse resources if you want to seek help. Additionally, I would recommend reading this pamphlet by Alcoholics Anonymous. AA has helped a countless amount of people and may be a perfect place to start on the road to getting your life back together.

The Best Non-Alcoholic Beers

2

Being the designated driver can be difficult. You watch your friends with drinks in hand, having fun and letting loose. You crave for something alcoholic just to take the edge off, but you have a duty to your friends to get them home safely.

So, someone recommends non-alcoholic beer. For me, it brings back an embarrassing moment of when I ordered non-alcoholic beer at a P.F. Chang’s and the waiter laughed at me. You may know someone who believes that non-alcoholic beer tastes like something I find too crass to write in this blog post right now. (What can I say? I’m a classy lady.)

However, when the music is on and the night is young, beggars can’t be choosers. You decide to take a leap of faith to order a non-alcoholic beer to make you feel part of the group. But which beer do you purchase?

Before I go into what I’ve found regarding the best non-alcoholic beers, there are a few important points I should mention. Non-alcoholic beer is not 100% non-alcoholic. Most non-alcoholic beers have 0.5% alcohol in them. Because of this, drinking non-alcoholic beer is not a good way to help with alcohol addiction. The little bit of alcohol, and even the taste, can trigger a relapse. Additionally, if you were drinking non-alcoholic beer, you should drink as much as you would (or less, even) if you were drinking normal beer. Drinking non-alcoholic beer does not mean you can increase your intake. Because it does have alcohol, drinking a large amount of non-alcoholic beer can be a risk.

And now, designated drivers, after asking around and combing through the internet, here’s what I’ve found to be the five best non-alcoholic beers.

Clausthaler


Clausthaler is a German beer that has 0.45% alcohol. Clausthaler is brewed in a different way than most non-alcoholic beers and many people find it to be the best substitute. For a richer, darker taste, try the Golden Amber, which is only 0.3% alcohol.

Buckler


Buckler is a product of Heineken and has 0.5% alcohol. This has gotten a few good reviews and oddly enough, I learned on Wikipedia that it was once the beverage of choice for both Joe Biden and George W. Bush. See? Democrats and Republicans maybe do have something in common…

Kaliber


Kaliber is brewed by the so-called beer gods themselves, Guinness. Kaliber gets so-so reviews online and a lot of people find its sweet taste to be… interesting, to say the least. Kaliber is brewed as a regular beer and then the alcohol is removed after. The total alcohol content is 0.5%.

St. Pauli Girl


St. Pauli Girl is probably the most well-known non-alcoholic beer in the United States. With 0.5% alcohol as well, a lot of people find this beer to light and crisp. Like Kaliber, it has an “interesting” sweet taste.

O’Doul’s Amber


I’m going to call this the dark horse of the list. A lot of people I know are not impressed with O’Doul’s. However, I found a surprising number of people online who say that O’Doul’s Amber isn’t terrible. Since it is an amber ale, the caramel malts give it more of a flavor than the tasteless original. However, you may need to try it for yourself. It can be hard to find at most places, I hear, so if you’re ever in a situation where it is the best option, you may as well give it a try.

Notable People Who Were Drinking and Driving

Comments

* Well, that guy from that show is going to jail. Joe Guidice, the husband of Theresa Guidice on the Real Housewives of New Jersey, is headed to jail today for driving with a suspended license and also driving under the influence. Despite the couple claiming their innocence, Guidice will spend 10 days in jail along with a 7-month license suspension.

* If you live in Washington D.C. I hope you’re not holding a ticket in your hand for driving with a cellphone. Since the driving with cellphone ban took place this morning, D.C. police already caught a bunch of drivers breaking the law.

* New York Jets’ wide receiver, Braylon Edwards was arrested early this morning for driving drunk. Police pulled him over after spotting that his Range Rover had tinted windows. He was tested for alcohol and blew twice the legal limit on the breathalyzer. Not only is it likely Edwards will receive criminal charges, he may also find himself in trouble with the NFL.

* The assistant coach of the Baltimore Ravens has been arrested again for driving under the influence this past Saturday. Andy Moeller was arrested back in May and was acquitted of his charges in August. This time he was pulled over for seven traffic violations, including driving while intoxicated.

Finding the Right DUI Lawyer

3

While the world is feeling sorry for poor Lindsay Lohan for failing her drug test, we forget to realize that we may have our own legal woes.

If you have been arrested for a DUI, one of the most common pieces of advice is to act quickly. We tell you to schedule your DMV hearing right away or get a lawyer right away.

As important as it is to act swiftly, it is important that you get a qualified lawyer to handle your case. If you hire the first lawyer you meet without interviewing him or her, there is a bigger chance of losing your case.

After working with people who have experienced a DUI trial, if I were to hire a DUI lawyer, I have a few qualifications that I would want my lawyer to have. Here is what I think makes a good DUI lawyer and these are very important qualifications that you should look for when trying to find a lawyer to defend your case.

Does your lawyer specialize in DUI cases? If you have a lawyer who only dabbles with DUIs, you may not get the full representation you need to fight your case. You want someone who knows DUI laws in-and-out and who has previously fought many cases like yours.

Does your lawyer have many cases that settle without going to trial? This is a great quality to look for in a lawyer. If you find a lawyer where most of his or her cases never go to trial, you know you have an experienced lawyer on your side who knows how to argue your case.

What else has your potential lawyer done in the world of DUI defense? Many experienced DUI lawyers have written articles for criminal defense publications or have lectured at DUI defense seminar. You want a DUI lawyer who is an expert in his or her field and who other people go to for their perspective. It is an added bonus if your lawyer has been interviewed for TV or radio about DUI defense issues. Since not all qualified DUI lawyers can speak at seminars or on TV, you should also look to see if your potential attorney is a member of any DUI defense organizations.

Above all, just because you need to act quickly, it does not mean you should compromise your legal representation. If you are in need of a lawyer right now, take advantage of our free consultations today.

What is a DMV Hearing?

Comments

A DMV hearing is a hearing conducted by your state’s department of motor vehicles to determine if your driver’s license should be suspended or revoked. It is very important to understand that a DMV hearing is different from a court hearing. A DMV hearing does not decide whether you are innocent or guilty of a DUI; it is to decide whether or not your driving privileges should be taken away from you.

If you get arrested for a DUI, you must schedule a DMV hearing within ten days of your arrest in order to save your license. In most states it is 10 days, but it differs. Above all, you have a short amount of time to contact the DMV. If you do not schedule a DMV hearing, you will lose your license even if your charges have been dropped or if you’ve been proven innocent.

When you contact your DMV to set up a hearing, they usually schedule a phone hearing. However, you do have a right to an in-person hearing with the DMV. A word of advice is to have you or your lawyer request an in-person hearing.

When an officer arrests you, they fill out a document called an “Officer’s Statement – Admin Per Se”. This document is used in the Administration Per Se (or APS), which is essentially the DMV hearing. The DMV will look at the officer’s statement and decide if you deserve to have your license taken away.

When you attend a DMV hearing, the hearing officer has the role of both of prosecutor and the judge. He or she will provide the evidence against you and make the decision of whether or not you can keep your license.

With a DMV hearing, in addition to your court hearing, dealing with a DUI arrest is a very daunting process. That is why it is integral to hire a DUI lawyer to help you navigate this system. If you need personalized help with your DUI, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Drunk Driving: Wet Reckless vs Dry Reckless

Comments

In some DUI cases, lawyers will try to get your sentenced reduced to a wet reckless or a dry reckless. Both are more lenient sentences than a DUI, but they have very different meanings. I’m sure you’ve heard “wet reckless” or “dry reckless” floating around in the news or on this site. If you’re not sure what they are, hopefully this post can help.

A wet reckless means that a person was driving irresponsibly due to alcohol. People often receive these when the prosecutor does not have enough evidence against you or if your BAC was just above or below the legal limit. If you get a wet reckless, you may still have to pay a fine and the DMV can still revoke your license.

Even though your sentence has been reduced from a DUI, having a wet reckless can hurt you in the long run. If you were to be arrested for a DUI again, the wet reckless will count as a prior offense and you will be prosecuted as a repeat DUI offender and not a first-time offender. This is very important to remember.

A dry reckless is defined as irresponsible driving without regarding other people and property. The fines are much less and the court will not suspend your license. A dry reckless will not be treated like a prior DUI if you were to get arrested or convicted again. Additionally, you will not need to attend a DUI education class, although many judges request people to take a class if they want their fines reduced.

No matter what your case may be, it is very important you hire a lawyer to help you fight your charges.

George Michael has been sentenced to jail for eight weeks for his second driving under the influence charge in London. Once he is released, his license will be revoked for five years, as well.

The Moutaineer’s starting cornerback, Brandon Hogan was arrested for a DUI this past weekend. West Virginia’s coach, Bill Stewart, is still mulling over the details before coming to a decision about Hogan’s playing status.

The insurer’s board at the Horace Mann Educators Corp placed the company’s CEO on leave after learning that he was in jail for a DUI. Louis Lower, the longtime CEO of the company, was arrested in Florida and is scheduled to be released in October.

The trial has begun for Andrew Thomas Gallo for the drunk driving accident that killed Angels pitcher, Nick Adenhart, along with two of Adenhart’s friends.

Despite protests of Gallo’s attorney to not have the trial take place in Orange County, Superior Court Judge Richard Toohey will hear the case’s opening statements today.

Drunk Driving in Movies and What the Consequences Would Be in Real Life: 28 Days

1

I remember watching 28 Days, starring Sandra Bullock, in health class to teach us about addiction. As it may be a good depiction of the difficulty of rehab, we don’t really see the other penalties that the character, Gwen, must go through.

If you recall, Gwen steals a limousine from her sister’s wedding to replace the cake that she knocked over. While talking on the phone, and being inebriated, Gwen crashes the limo into someone’s front lawn.

First and foremost, yes, rehab or some type of treatment of alcohol abuse is often a punishment for this crime. In the state of California, Gwen could also end up paying a $1,000 fine and spend up to a year in jail. Additionally, we cannot forget that she could be required to install an ignition interlock device.

Also, Gwen stole the vehicle. She could be charged as a felon for grand theft auto. We see stories all the time where people steal cars (including squad cars) and then get busted for driving under the influence. This could mean up to four years in jail and a $ 10,000 fine.

Furthermore, she was talking on her cellphone during the scene which we all know now is a huge hazard. An additional fine would be added on to the list of other punishments.

Pretty unsafe, that Sandra Bullock.

All About DUI School

Posted on by
1

With back to school on the brain, I thought I’d talk about DUI schools in my post today. A lot of people find themselves in situations where they have to attend DUI classes in order to get their license back. Like any new situation, people may not know what to expect, and this is especially true for a one-time DUI offender who is required to attend DUI school. Therefore, here are a few facts about DUI school to give you some insight on what to expect.

First, it is important to know that DUI schools are different in every state. Some states offer online classes. The length or number of classes you need to take varies from state to state. In most states, the time you need to spend in alcohol education classes depends on your charge.

Many schools offer flexible hours and there are a few that even provide transportation. A typical class consists of learning about DUI laws and the affects of alcohol on your body. You hear stories about other victims and oftentimes a representative from Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous will speak to the class.

There may be homework or a written exam, but for most places that I’ve researched, attendance is the only requirement. Also, it’s important to note that a lot of schools have a zero tolerance policy on absences. You need to fulfill every hour required or you can find yourself in deep water. (Uh, Lindsay Lohan? Hello?!)

Finally, I understand that DUI school is the last place you want to be. I just say to get it over and done with as soon as possible so you can move on from it. There have also been some cases where charges have been reduced after completion of an alcohol education class. (However, this definitely depends on the state and the specific case.)

Here is where you can find more information on DUI schools and to find a location near you.

Drunk Driving and Local Politicians

2

I guess being a mayor is a tough job. I wouldn’t know.

Every day, Darbi, Angie, and I search the media for DUI stories and legislation that will affect you. Recently, we have been coming across stories that involve a mayor getting a DUI.

What is it about small town politics that creates an atmosphere where mayors think they can drink and drive? If change happens locally and then globally, aren’t these local politicians being terrible role models for the citizens in their towns?

In Mankato, Minnesota, Mayor John Brady was pulled over on his way to the airport. He had an open bottle of vodka in his car and his B.A.C. registered at 0.242. Despite a council member stating that this incident was “… a breach of public trust that cannot be tolerated”, Brady has no plans to resign.

In Arkansas, Harrisburg’s mayor lives up to his nickname, “Buzzy”. Recently, Mayor Donald Faulkner had his mayoral driving privileges revoked after a second DWI offense.

The former mayor of Bellevue, Idaho was arrested this past weekend for drunk driving. Jon Anderson, who resigned this past June, has one misdemeanor charge, plus a pending misdemeanor charge prior to his arrest on Saturday. This means that his most recent drunk driving arrest can wind up making him a convicted felon.

These are only a few examples of public officials getting arrested for drinking and driving. Obviously many occupations and positions can be considered a public role. Do these people have a duty to act even more responsible if they are seen in the public eye? Alternatively, are we putting too much pressure on public figures to be perfect all the time and chastise them way too harshly for making one mistake? What do you think?

Arrested for Driving Drunk? Here's What to Do.

3

Getting a DUI or DWI is a very overwhelming experience. You may still be processing your drunk driving arrest and you’re unsure where to begin. DUI laws are difficult to understand and you’re worried about the effect it will have on your life.

However, it is important to remember that a DUI arrest is not a conviction. There are very important things you need to do to ensure that you do not lose your license and driving privileges.

Schedule Your DMV Hearing. In many states, you have ten days after your DUI arrest to schedule your DMV hearing. If you don’t schedule it on time, you will lose your license regardless of the outcome of your trial.

Hire a lawyer. Obviously, I work for a company that markets DUI lawyers. Sales pitch aside, it is really important to get one. There are many intricate details involving DUI laws that will go unnoticed without the expertise of a DUI lawyer. If you honestly are unable to make the investment in a lawyer, at least find a DUI manual that explains DUI laws so you can have a better understanding.

Don’t Forget Your Court Dates. Not arriving for your scheduled court dates will not only irritate the judge, it will also have an effect on your DUI conviction. You want to look and be as responsible as possible during this process to prove to the judge (and yourself) that you can learn from this mistake.

Write Everything Down. When you hire a DUI lawyer, the more details you remember about your arrest, the better. Write down every specific detail about your DUI arrest, including what the officers said to you, what you said to the officers, if there were any witnesses, and other pertinent information.

Above all, you need to take responsibility for the irresponsible choice that got you arrested. You have a responsibility to not only serve the proper punishment for your DUI or DWI, but you also have a responsibility to yourself to fight your case and keep your life on track.
