Chemical Testing And Bucks, PA DUI Laws:
What You Need To Know When Facing A Bucks, PA DUI Arrest

If you are pulled over on suspicion of a Bucks, PA DUI, you will likely be asked to submit to a field sobriety test as well as a chemical test. While you have the right to refuse the field sobriety test when suspected of a Bucks, PA DUI arrest, you can get yourself into a bit of trouble if you refuse a chemical test.

According to Bucks, PA DUI law, you can face any of the following consequences if you refuse the chemical test:

  • Your refusal to take a chemical test during the time of your Bucks, PA DUI arrest can be used against you in court as a “consciousness of guilt.” While a Bucks, PA DUI attorney can provide other reasons for your refusal, this creates just one more obstacle to overcome.
  • According to Bucks, PA DUI law, you can lose your license for a period of time simply for refusing to submit to the test – even if you are found innocent of your Bucks, PA DUI arrest.
  • Additional time can be added to your sentence if you are found guilty of a Bucks, PA DUI.

There are a number of forms of chemical testing that may be utilized when faced with a Bucks, PA DUI arrest. These include urinalysis, blood tests, and breath samples.

Blood tests are generally the most accurate, while breath and urine test are less reliable. Therefore, if you know you are sober, a blood test is the best form of test to accept. Otherwise, a urine test is the easiest chemical test result to have dismissed. 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.
