Your Bucks County, Pennsylvania DUI Defense Attorney Knows...
Field Sobriety Tests Have Flaws That Bucks, PA DUI Lawyers Can Leverage
Even though the federal government has “approved” three field sobriety tests, Bucks, PA DUI lawyers know these tests have flaws. That's why you should hire a Bucks County, Pennsylvania DUI defense attorney that can evaluate this evidence to improve your case.
One field sobriety test that is easy for Bucks, PA DUI lawyers to poke holes in is the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus test. This test involves having you follow a pen light with your eyes from left to right. Theoretically, this allows the officer to determine if you are intoxicated. But, your Bucks County DUI lawyer can have this evidence dismissed for many reasons:
- The test involves monitoring the smoothness of the eye as it moves --- but officers aren’t medically trained for determining what is “normal”.
- The test requires the officer to estimate the degree of eye movement --- thus, the results may be inaccurate.
- The test is not accepted by the medical community.
With the right Bucks County, Pennsylvania DUI defense attorney, sobriety testing results can be scrutinized. This makes the chances of your Bucks County DUI lawyer improving your case even better. Contact Vince Margiotti at 215-822-1888 today.
UPDATE: A revision to Pennsylvania Law has been proposed to change DUI (Driving Under the Influence) to DAI (Driving After Imbibing). This will cause sweeping changes to Pennsylvania DUI laws and present many challenges to defense lawyers, prosecutors and the courts. This matter is still pending. |
