I've always been asked, what do I do when I get pulled over for a DUI? Obviously if you've been drinking, you got something to worry about. One of my tips to all my friends out there, my little brothers, my little sister, just shut the fuck up. Don't say anything now and don't take the test, but this rule only applies if you're not in probation and you are not under 21 meaning you're over 21 the reason is you really don't want to say anything. You don't want to give the cops and they kind of ammo.
Part of a #DUI investigation is knowing when you drank and what your alcohol level was at the time of driving. Now let's say for instance you test I .10 and now we're at the driving. If you told the cops that you had two beers, only two beers three hours ago, they're going to hold you to that three hours ago.
What does that three hours have to do with anything? It puts you into elimination stage. It destroys one of your defenses. The best thing you can say is nothing at all. Say, officer, you know what? I don't feel like, say anything. If you have a ticket, you want to write me up for it, just write it up and let me go. The officer may say something along the lines of repeating his question. What have you been drinking tonight? Forcefully to put fear into you. My #advice, stand firm and let the officer know politely. Of course, don't feel the attitude test that the officer, “no officer, respectfully, I don't feel like answering any questions. If you want to arrest me for something, by all means go ahead.” He may arrest you, but so what? It's better than doing his job.
If you want to write me a ticket, just write me a ticket or arrest me and then he may offer you. “You know what? I'll tell you what. If you come out of the car and you do these tests and you do and you pass them, I'll let you go. Don't do that shit. Here's why. If you do these tests by this time, he's already marking you down.
Hugh has blood shot, watery eyes, and has an unsteady gait. These balanced tests, the WAC tests, they're designed for you to fail. You're going to fail them, period. And even though when you do pass them, he’ll still write you down as failing. And then afterwards he's going to ask you to blow into one of these machines.
Don't do this. This roadside optional tests optional. That's, that's what it is. Now this is before you get arrested. After you get arrested though, that's another story. You'll have to do an evidential test. Now when it comes to that, different DUI attorneys will say different things. A lot of DUI #attorneys will say, take the breath test. I take the breath, test my opinion, my personal. Have you done everything right? You didn't give the officer a drinking pattern. He didn't do any FSTs. You didn't blow in this machine before he arrested you and now you're at the point where he gives you a choice between blood [inaudible]. Sometimes they don't give you a choice at all, request blood That's my opinion because the reason is at this point, nobody knows what your blood alcohol content is. The opposite doesn't know. What does that do?
Why is it significant to you? Well, if he doesn't know what your blood alcohol content is, he can't embellish him as a boy. He's got to stay honest to it. The worst thing an officer can do is embellishing the report. Say you failed all the FSTs and smell like booze and all of a sudden the blood tests come back at 0.05 well the blood tests. Well in case you're wondering the blood test, it doesn't come back until 10 days later. So the officer doesn't know he has to write a report honestly. Well, a couple of hours afterwards. So that's it. That's my tip. What to do when pulled over for a DUI and if you ever get, I pulled over for a DUI, you get arrested. I don't care if you drank 10 beers and he's weaved all over the road. My, my job is to protect your rights.
