Understanding New Jersey DUI and DWI Laws

When someone is pulled over for suspicion of drinking and driving in New Jersey, law enforcement has the authority to conduct a standardized field sobriety test (SFST) and test the driver for a blood alcohol concentration over the legal limit of 0.08%. and a blood alcohol percentage of 0.08% or more. Someone with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level of 0.08% or higher is considered legally intoxicated in the state of New Jersey and if stopped while driving, will be charged with a DUI charge.

Trained in Alcotest® and Breathalyzer

Carmine Villani has participated in the same training for overseeing a breath test as NJ law enforcement. This insight into breath tests and how to correctly administer them is a big advantage to his clients. A breath test needs to be administered in an extremely specific way. A breath test that has not been executed the right way by the officer can lead to reduced charges.

Standardized Field Sobriety Testing

The standardized field sobriety test (SFST) is not a perfect process and is not usually enough evidence to charge someone with operating a vehicle intoxicated. However, it can give reasonable cause for a police officer, which necessitates the implementation of a blood alcohol test. Mistakes do occur even with training to conduct standardized field sobriety testing. If the test is administered improperly, it can disprove the results and lead to charges being lessened.

Understanding Drug Recognition Evalutation

If a police officerthinks that a driver is operating a vehicle under the influence of drugs, he or she will implement the drug recognition evaluation (DRE) to prove the suspicion. Errors do occur when an officer uses the DRE to decide if a driver is doing drugs and driving. When these errors occur, you need a lawyer familiar with DRE defending you. Villani & DeLuca DWI lawyers are skilled in exposing inaccurate results in order to protect the rights of clients.

Fighting Charges With a NJ DWI Lawyer

The severity of penalties for a DWI guilty verdict will differ depending on the circumstances of the arrest itself. Penalties include monetary charges up to $1,000, a suspended driver's license of up to 10 years, interlock ignition device and possible jail time.
Unfortunately, drivers are falsely charged with DWI. Get in touch with a lawyer who serves Monmouth Beach, New Jersey today if you may have been falsely accused of drunken driving. Our attorneys will help you plan your defense.

Breath Test Refusal

You are legally not allowed to turn down a breath test in New Jersey. Declining a breath test will produce refusal charges and an arrest. Refusal charges in NJ can even dwarf the charges that occur when you are convicted of a DWI.
Officers must have probable cause in order to require people to participate in a breath or blood test. Your Villani & DeLuca DWI lawyer will be able to demonstrate whether probable cause was in fact established and if a medical issue prohibited you from participating in a breath test.

How DWI Checkpoints Work in NJ

You may be questioned in the event of being stopped by law enforcement at a DUI checkpoint. But, you do not have to provide information for questions other than basic information such as your given name and address. Also, your trunk should not be searched without a warrant.
