Non-Alcohol Factors That Could Cause You to Get Arrested for a DUI

Written by: The Law Offices of Garrett T. Ogata

Police officers need to have reasonable suspicion to make a traffic stop.  There is typically the argument that you were swerving, changing lanes quickly or driving too slow. However, sometimes you get arrested for a DUI because of non-alcohol factors, such as:

  • Reading a map
  • Using a cellphone/dropping a cellphone
  • Spilling your coffee
  • Applying makeup
  • Dealing with a bee, wasp or hornet in the car
  • Talking to passengers
  • Driving around lost

If you get arrested for a DUI, the attorney you hire will play a significant role in your future. This is no time to cut corners or expenses. Being convicted will affect you, your family, your career, education, etc. It will haunt you for a very long time, so it is vital that you hire someone that has the expertise and experience needed to handle a delicate case, such as this.
