About
DUI Law: Driving
Under the Influence of alcohol (DUI) is the act of
operating a road vehicle after having consumed alcohol beyond
legal limits or taking other drugs to the point of being impaired.
Being legally intoxicated while operating a vehicle will get
you charged with Driving Under the Influence (DUI).
The threshold is typically with a breath, blood or urine test,
where a blood alcohol level exceeds 0.08%. If law enforcement
stops you and takes samples of your blood alcohol level and
you refuse to submit to the test, your driver’s license
will be suspended even if you are not guilty. In California,
the reporting period for all DUI offenses
is now 10 years, including insurance companies. Drivers with
DUI violations that occurred
within 10 years are not entitled to receive insurance discounts.

charges are serious and if you are charged
with a DUI, you seeking the help of a DUI
