As a frequent “drunk” driver I find this site a breath of fresh air. I’m sorry world, but why is it that someone is considered drunk after they have four beers in an hour. What is this junior high? And really, even if you’re stone cold sober and you get pulled over, the very implication that you are drunk, nullifies any argument of defense you would have with your cop, and ultimately with your judge. The DUI laws are not there to protect anyone. They are there to make allot of money. This is what cops do:

• They pick someone and they tailgate them. They drive right up their ass. When that person starts to drive funny they have probable cause.
  
• They keep following until they get to an intersection and then they turn their lights on to pull them over. Ideally, the victim, having no safe place to pull over, will not pull over immediately but instead drive a past the intersection where it is safer.
  
• The cop asks the usual questions and administers a field sobriety test. There is no way to pass this test to the satisfaction of the police officer. They may even have you stand on an uneven portion of the shoulder when you do it.
• Now it’s time for the little field breathalyzer. It will read high even for a single beer. It doesn’t have to be calibrated exactly like the ones tat the station. It will always say you’re drunk. They have to bring you in. The case against you has been established and you are screwed.

At you’re trial:

• The cop found you couldn’t stay within the confines of your driving lane. When the cop put on his lights you continued to drive, and the cop will say he had to “pursue” you for 300 feet.
  
• The cop will say your eyes were bloodshot and glazed and that you fumbled with the requested license and registration.
  
• If your blood alcohol level was found to be within legal limits at the station, it’s passed off that too much time has passed and you “were drunk” at the time of your arrest. It doesn’t matter because you will be found guilty.
  
• Case closed. Any details that you dispute will make you look like a liar. The cop can wax it over because you were drunk and wouldn’t have remembered the events accurately.

There will be court costs, fines, one to six months of jail time (that you have to pay for), towing and impound fees, alcohol rehabilitation and awareness treatment, Mr. Bailbondsman, and equipping your car with a breathalyzer. If you had a lawyer, you will end up paying someplace between $2500 and $6500 (whatever you save goes to the lawyer anyway). Now all this cash ends up in the county’s pockets. Thats alot of money every month from “drunk” drivers alone. If you figure in the pay for all of the people involved in the process:, the administrators, the cops, the bailiffs, the judges ect, you’ll figure out that the county is probably PROFITING from lawbreakers. It’s a scam.
