What are the DWI laws in NJ?

The legal limit for driving in NJ is a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08%, and a reading at or above this legal limit will lead to DWI charges.

He has been given the same training as NJ law enforcement and can take note of incorrect administration of a breath test by vigilantly considering official police procedures, machine calibration and maintenance standards.

Field Sobriety Test Procedures

You must obey an officer who has asked that you take the standardized field sobriety test (SFST) if the officer believes you are inebriated and should not be driving. But, the evidence of a field sobriety test is only useful if it was properly administered.

Have you
declined to participate in a breath test in New Jersey? Refusal charges can create heavier fines and penalties than driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. If probable cause has been demonstrated, you are not allowed by law to refuse a breath test administered by a police officer.
Were youpulled over and forced to take a breath test without probable cause? It is illegal to force a person to take a breath test if he or she was asked to do so without probable cause. You can fight your charges on the basis that the police officer who arrested you never actually tried to prove probable cause.
