Glendora DUI Attorney

If a police officer believes that you are driving under the influence due to speeding or erratic driving, you will be pulled over on a traffic stop. You will usually be asked to perform field sobriety tests conducted by the officer. He will ask you to take a breathalyzer test. This test measures your blood alcohol concentration (BAC). If the test registers at .08% or above, you will be arrested and charged with driving under the influence. If you refuse the BAC test, your driver's license will automatically be suspended and the DUI penalties enhanced. Your use of a California driver's license includes the implied consent to be tested for alcohol. There are two specific charges in California law that are used in a drunk driving arrest:

California Vehicle Code 23152 (a): driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
California Vehicle Code 23152 (b): driving with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08% or higher.

From the date of your arrest you have only 10 days in which to request an administrative DMV hearing. This hearing is to determine whether to suspend or revoke your license, based on the evidence provided by police. If you do not schedule a hearing, your license will automatically be suspended. A DUI conviction can carry severe consequences that will affect your life for many years.
