DUI law is high technical, counter-intuitive and can change very quickly. This is both a good and bad thing. The good news (for someone who is charged with a DUI) is that, because the law is so technical, even if you blow over the legal limit, you may still be able to avoid a criminal conviction, avoid jail, and keep your driver’s license. The bad new is that, because it is so technical, most people won’t be able to tell whether or not they have a workable defence. After you've gone through the site, it would be a good idea to call Mr. Pearse to clarify any questions you may have.
