Title of the article
The laws regarding drunk driving in most countries have been carefully prepared and developed to give the appropriate amount of penalty to people who have committed a DWI or DUI offense. But in spite of the efforts of the authorities and lawmakers to make the rules as precise and as fair as possible, there will always be cases wherein Dui laws will have, as one might say, gray areas. This is due to the fact that each case has its own uniqueness which not all sections of the law may address. These DUI loopholes are a major concern to most legal bodies, however, they can be used to your advantage with the proper knowledge if you have been caught drunk driving.
The most common DUI loophole takes place during a drunk driving incident
that involves an injury on the part of the driver. If a motorist has been sent to the emergency room of a hospital due to injuries caused by his drunk driving, his chances of being caught for DUI or DWI will be very low. This is because nurses and doctors cannot report the blood alcohol content or drug test of the injured motorist to the police. Doing so will cause these professionals to lose their licenses. Next, another DUI loop hole which many people are aware of is the accuracy of the devices used in testing the blood alcohol content among alleged drunk driving motorists. Many people who have been convicted with DUI or DWI have been freed due to the argument that the breathalyzer or any other device that was used to test their alcohol level was improperly calibrated.
As a last remark, you need to be very careful should you plan to make use of these loopholes to beat DUI. One way to do this is to hire a good drunk driving lawyer. Make sure that the attorney who will represent you has extensive knowledge regarding the effectiveness and risks of these loopholes. But aside from your lawyer, see to it that you yourself clearly understand these loopholes before trying to take advantage of them.
