If I get pulled over for DWI, do I have to take a breathalyzer test?
If a police offer suspects you of driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol based on your behavior, he or she can pull you over and attempt to administer a test of your blood alcohol level. You do have the right to refuse to take this test. This refusal can be considered “consciousness of guilt,” but this will not necessarily make you lose your case.
A first time DWI conviction can be punished with jail time, over a thousand dollars in fines, and the suspension of your driver’s license. For the aggressive defense you need, contact Las Vegas criminal lawyer Palmer & Associates, P.C. at 702-888-2222.
