Drunk Driving Probability Is Going Up

Inland Empire DUI Lawyer — Tue, 01 Nov 2011 14:20:59 +0000

The probability of you or someone you know being involved in a drunk driving or DUI related accident is going up at an enormous rate. Over the last 2 years the drunk driving rate in California has gone up 12% each year, as reported from Robert Salinsky of www.RobertSalinsky.com a Los Angeles DUI attorney. This year it’s not expected to get any lower. In fact, because of economic conditions that we will face this year, it’s likely that more people are going to be drinking and that’s gonna lead to more people drinking and driving. I don’t think that any of us have all the answers or the answer to what will stop people from drinking, but I do know that we as individuals can make the choice not to drink and drive and certainly we can make the choice to encourage others to do the same. Spread the word, drinking and driving can ruin your life.

Factors That Can Enhance a DUI Charge in California

Inland Empire DUI Lawyer — Wed, 14 Sep 2011 15:55:59 +0000

One thing you should know about a DUI arrest is that every DUI case is different, each with their own unique circumstances. When it comes to deciding the penalties for a DUI charge, the judge and/or looks at many factors. There are certain factors, however, that can enhance a DUI charge in California including:

Having minors in the vehicle with you at the time of arrest Being under the legal drinking age (The legal age is 21 in most states.) Any prior DUI charges Causing an accident, injury, or death to other people Having a BAC (blood alcohol content) of .20% greater than the legal limit Speeding or reckless driving

In the state of California enhancements are usually added on when the charges are initially filed, but they can be added at a later time if the case is still pending and the enhancements won’t threaten the driver’s right to a fair trial. These additional allegations must be proven beyond a reasonable doubt or the sentence cannot be enhanced. If you are found to be guilty of these additional allegations, you can probably see higher fines, longer jail sentence, longer mandatory DUI education, longer driver’s license suspension, and a more restrictive probation.

If you have been arrested for drunk driving and your case includes any one of the circumstances mentioned above, it may be beneficial to hire an experienced California DUI defense lawyer who specializes in DUI cases. A lawyer can investigate your case and make sure that your right to a fair trial is upheld in court.

Harsher Penalties For Drunk Drivers In California

Inland Empire DUI Lawyer — Sun, 31 Jul 2011 15:51:59 +0000

On the heels of a month marked by extensive media coverage of the Orange County trial of Andrew Gallo–the San Gabriel man, who, despite having his license suspended for a prior DUI conviction, took the wheel after a night of binge drinking and killed Angeles’ rookie pitcher, Nick Adenhart, and two friends in an early morning collision–news has broken of a new law that will impact DUI repeat offenders. Starting January 1, 2012, judges will have the option of revoking an individual’s license for up to 10 years if that person has three or more convictions for driving under the influence within the past decade. The law is just one of many efforts by state legislators and officials to combat drunk driving in California.

Annually 1.5 million people are arrested for driving under the influence in this state, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). DUI repeat offenders account for one-third of those arrested. A recent study of the percentage of drivers with alcohol-related convictions in the nation’s 20 largest cities by insurance.com found that the greatest number of violators resided in San Diego, followed by San Jose in second place, Los Angeles in seventh, and San Francisco in eighth. The high incidence of convicted drivers in these cities was attributed to three factors: a higher rate of alcohol consumption among the population, “more partiers,” in general; a lack of public transportation; and effective enforcement of drinking-and-driving laws.

Over the last 30 years, numerous laws have been passed to prevent drinking and driving in the United States:

In 1984, the Federal Uniform Drinking Age Act was signed into law. Under the law, states that fail to prohibit the purchase or public consumption of alcohol by an individual under the age of 21 will have 10% of Federal highway funding withheld from them. In effect, this law raised the national minimum drinking age to 21.

In 1990, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that sobriety checkpoints were legal under the constitution.

In 1995, the Federal Zero Tolerance Law was passed, making it illegal for individuals under 21 years old to drive with any measurable amount of blood alcohol content (BAC) in their blood. Highway safety funds would be withheld from any state failing to comply with the law by October 1, 1998.

In 2000, .08 BAC became the national illegal limit for impaired driving. Under the law, a percentage of federal highway construction funds would be withheld from any state failing to comply.

To date, 14 states have enacted laws mandating DUI first-time and repeat offenders to install ignition interlock devices in their vehicles: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Illinois, Louisiana, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Utah, and Washington. California, however, has only implemented a pilot program in four counties: Alameda, Los Angeles, Sacramento, and Tulare. Drivers with the device are forced to breathe into a tube connected to a machine that measures alcohol levels; if alcohol is detected, the machine will prevent the ignition from starting. The device not only prevents those with DUI convictions from drinking and driving, it also serves as a deterrent to all drivers, as it considerably increases the cost of receiving a DUI. Legislators will consider expanding the program statewide after a 5-year evaluation.

In California-and nationwide-efforts to combat drunk driving have had an impact on the number of fatal alcohol-related accidents. Throughout the country, such accidents decreased by almost 10 percent from 13,041 in 2007 to 11, 773 in 2008. In California, there were 108 fewer fatal accidents in 2008 than in 2007, from 1,347 to 1,239. Hopefully, the fatality rate will continue to decline with the state’s increasingly aggressive DUI enforcement and harsher penalties.

The Ultimate California Drunk Driving Accident Legal Survival Book

Product Description

I am California auto accident attorney Mark C. Blane and I began my legal career helping ordinary folks obtain justice from their injuries due to the negligence of another. I went to law school knowing I did not want to represent corporate interests; I wanted to be able to look a client in the eyes and help them in their time of need. If you or someone you love has been injured in any type of accident, I want you to know that you have my sympathy. As an injured accident victim myself, I understand the pain and feeling of helplessness that comes with being in an accident. I also understand the journey to recovery first hand.

I wrote this book to explain the mysteries surrounding a California drunk driving accident & injury case, and what you can do to educate yourself in the process. I want to make sure you understand your legal rights if you or a loved one was injured in a car accident by a drunk driver. The book discusses the legal rights of a drunk driving accident victim in the criminal and civil courts in California. It explains the laws on filing personal injury claims against the persons and businesses that serve alcohol to the drunk driver prior to an accident and discusses the victim’s right to California Insurance benefits after an accident. The insurance laws in California that apply to car accidents are very complicated and change on an almost daily basis.
