Utah DUI Attorney
Salt Lake City DUI Lawyer
You can be arrested for a Utah DUI if you make the mistake of driving with a blood alcohol level of 0.08 percent or higher. You may also be charged with a DUI in Utah if caught with an open alcohol container in your vehicle. If you are under 21, Utah’s ‘zero tolerance’ laws are even more stringent.
But a Utah DUI arrest may not be an air-tight case for the prosecution. When stopped by the local police, you could have made an inadvertent admission or made the wrong decision regarding a sobriety test. Upon closer examination, a blood test or breathalyzer results may be inaccurate or improperly administered. It is also important to look carefully at the original reason for the traffic stop; it may be illegal. Police testimony may conflict with booking room videos. Or, your case may be denied a speedy trial.
The best decision you can make concerning your Utah DUI arrest is to contact a Utah DUI attorney at Craig Swapp & Associates. Our job is to thoroughly examine the evidence, and testimonies, and protect your rights under Utah law.
