Illini: "If you get pulled over and have been drinking, there is absolutely no way that you can get a DUI if you know your rights."

One can refuse the field sobriety test, but one is required by law
to take a blood test or breath test at the police station.

So, if one is indeed drunk, there are ways to lessen your chances of
getting a DUI/DWI, but to say "absolutely no way you can get a DUI"
IMHO is stretching things a bit.

Care to elaborate?
You don't have to take any tests of any kind. You don't have to take a sobriety test, and you don't have to take a breath or blood test either. And if they arrest you and charge you with DUI, you still don't have to take a test at the police station. You have to right to not incriminate yourself. They can forcibly draw your blood after an arrest if they have a warrant, but they don't typically get a judge to issue a warrant unless you've been involved in a crash with injuries.

In my town a few months ago, a police officer was clocked doing 85 in a 45 at 2am on a Friday night. He simply refused all testing and did not answer any questions. He was arrested and got an automatic driver's license suspension for the test refusals. But the charges were dropped, because he didn't provide them with any evidence. He did not lose his job. He's currently on desk duty, driving his own vehicle with a breathalyzer device. As soon as his suspension is up, he'll be back on the streets arrested people for DUI and forcing them to do what he would not.

Now I don't condone drunk driving. I'm just saying that if you ever find yourself in that situation, do not cooperate. Only suckers cooperate, because if you do, it will be a helluva lot worse for you. The cops that are questioning you certainly know their rights and would not allow themselves to be bullied, if the shoe were on the other foot.

What's with all these insults in this thread?

I would gladly lose my license for 12 months if I was facing a 12-month jail sentence if I was convicted of a DUI due to a breathalizer test. The guy Illni mentioned even got to keep his job after refusing to submit to the test.

The same Tiger that won the US open on one crippled leg now says he can't play in his own event for charity because of pain from a 'minor' accident.

Keep talking Tiger, keep digging that hole.

Right, it's none of mine either, but for those who say it's a private matter are wrong.

I am personally unaware of any jurisdiction which can forcibly compel either a blood test or breath test "at the station" unless the defendant has been involved in an incident which directly harmed another person(s).

Thus, in likely 99.5% of "DUI stops", it is indeed very smart to never submit to either a field sobriety test or a breathalyzer. Without one or both of those to introduce into evidence at trial, it is very difficult for the prosecution to obtain a conviction presuming the defendant has competent legal counsel.

barman, agreed. but...
"We're told authorities believe they can show probable cause a crime was committed, a necessary step in obtaining a warrant"

they are basing this on elins story mixup about a golf cart. but tmz has now showed a pic with a golf cart at the scene. so very possible she wasnt lying.


Oh, I never suggested that "obtaining a warrant" to search the medical records would be particularly difficult.

What is unlikely is that such a warrant would succeed in actually obtaining said records.

For a rather prominent example of precedent law from right here in Florida, see the Rush Limbaugh case when FDLE attempted to obtain his medical records in hopes of proving an illegal drug possession case against him (they were unsuccessful).

Imo Tiger is the most widely known athlete in the world. Tiger and his wife don't have to talk to the police and will not, even if charged. His lawyer will advise both to keep quiet and not say anything.

Let's not forget that Tiger and his wife have the right not to testify against each other as well.

I believe this case will amount to nothing. The cops have nothing and it doesn't appear they can prove anything.

THANK YOU...cogent points all in the above post

This has become and will remain nothing more than hours and hours and hours and hours of cheap fodder for the "news channels" and the entertainment channels to use for filling in their always challenging 24 hour feeds.

I have spoken to a number of lawyers regarding the "blow or not to blow" question. The answer I get everytime, is never blow if you are 100 percent certain you will fail.
