When an officer asks you to breathe into a breathalyzer, it's not just about taking a deep breath and blowing. This device is designed to estimate the amount of alcohol in your bloodstream by measuring the concentration of alcohol in your breath. This measurement is known as Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC). The legal limit in most states is 0.08%, beyond which you're considered unfit to drive.

But how accurate are these devices? While breathalyzers are not infallible, they are a tried and tested tool in law enforcement's DUI detection arsenal. They are built based on scientific principles that ensure that, if used correctly, they provide a legally admissible estimate of one's BAC level. However, factors like calibration, operator error, and individual physiology can influence the results. Our attorneys are well-acquainted with such details and can assess the credibility of the test results in any legal proceedings.

When it comes to DUI stops, knowledge of the law is paramount. Each state has its own laws regarding implied consent, which typically means that by holding a driver's license, you've agreed to submit to a breathalyzer test if suspected of DUI. Refusal can lead to immediate consequences such as license suspension and could influence your case in court.

Conversely, if you agree to take the test and your BAC reads over the legal limit, you could face charges leading to fines, license revocation, or even jail time. The exact penalties vary by state, so it's essential to understand the specific DUI laws where you live or where the stop occurred. Our team of attorneys has comprehensive knowledge of these laws to protect your rights effectively.

Refusing a breathalyzer test is a double-edged sword. Although you may believe it helps you avoid incriminating yourself, it can also have serious immediate legal ramifications. License suspension and fines are common penalties, even before a court appearance. Moreover, refusal could be used against you as evidence of guilt.

Every situation is different, and the best choice depends on various factors. That's why consulting with an attorney before taking action is highly advisable. With Felix Gonzalez Accident-Injury, you'll have access to professionals who can provide tailored advice based on your specific case. Don't hesitate; call us in your time of need.

If you decide to take the breathalyzer test and it registers a BAC over the legal limit, it's not the end of the road. There are still legal avenues to explore and defenses to consider. Proper calibration of the device, correct administration of the test, and interrogation of the stop's circumstances are all elements that can be examined in your defense.

Our attorneys understand the anxiety that comes with this decision and are prepared to stand by you through the process. They aim to ensure that every detail is considered in your case. If you're in this position, let us be your guide and advocate. Your first step should be to call us at (512) 866-8536.

A positive test doesn't immediately translate to a conviction. There is a myriad of ways an expert attorney can challenge breathalyzer results.
