Getting a DUI In Florida
Could Be Devastating, But....
it's not the end of the world. More importantly, if you feel there were circumstances beyond
your control that were contributing factors to the arrest, you might want to think about challenging it in the state of Florida to save your
driver's license.
Florida lawmakers have toughened the DUI laws. If you are pulled over by the police and charged with DUI, refused to take a breath, blood or
urine test, or if you took the test and your result is 0.08 or greater, you have only 10 days to request a special hearing where you can appear
in court and fight to regain your license. Failure to do so will result in a minimum six month suspension and as much as an eighteen (18) months
suspension of your driver's license.
If any of the following facts are present in your DUI arrest, please understand that the 10 Day Rule applies to you and you must act now.
 |
You took the breathalyzer test and the results indicate your
blood alcohol level was .08 or higher. |
 |
You refused to take the breathalyzer test. |
 |
You tried to take the test, but the arresting officer disagrees
with your position because you couldn't blow or urinate. |
 |
You were under 21 on the day of arrest and your test result was
.02 or higher. |
 |
You have a CDL, you were in your rig when arrested, and either
had an unlawful blood alcohol level or refused to take the breathalyzer test. |
 |
You were not sure what your blood alcohol level was when
arrested. |
Remember … getting arrested for DUI does not mean you have to lose your license or pay inflated insurance rates. A Successful DUI Lawyer will
utilize the 10 day rule to save your driver's license and driving record in the state of Florida.
