Virginia DUI Law

Certainly, "It is a matter of common knowledge based on human experince that outward manifestations of intoxication will vary from individual to individual. While one highly intoxicated individual may exhibit few, if any, outward manifestations of intoxication, another individual may appear to be very intoxicated after consuming a small quantity of alcohol. Thus, a determination whether a person was "under the influence of alcohol," even when aided  by statutory presumption, cannot be reduced to a readily usable mathmatical or objective formula. Rather, that determination must be based upon the totality of the evidence."  Davis v. Commonwealth (1989) Consequently, you are entitled to the presumption of innocence.

Lynchburg Drugged Driving Attorney

Drugged Driving is DUI:

With the recently legalization of Marijuana in Virginia, law enforcement has a hightened sense of awareness to drugged driving. Driving high is drugged driving. Just because an accused has not been drinking alcohol does mean they cannot be charge with DUI. Here is some important information to know about marijuana and driving.

When Driving Under the Influence or Driving While Intoxicated, a Drug Recognition Officer will likely be called and use a 12 step process to evaluate the impairment of a suspect.

  1. Breath Alcohol Test: the roadside test used if suspected alcohol impairment
  2. Interview of the Arresting Officer
  3. Preliminary examination, pulse.
  4. Eye Examination: Nystagmus, Lack of Convergence

This is precisely why the drivers exchange of information is important. Because the drivers exchange of information is usually distributed to each driver at the scene of the acci

  A common issue after a car accident is dealing with a damaged vehicle. As a general matter, when a client calls me and has a car accident claim, I first see if I can help them obtain medical treatment. Secondly, I get their vehicle addressed as quickly as possible. Because I understand that a car, at least in most parts of the Country, is an integral part of our lives. What happens to your vehicle after a car accident is dependent on the level of damage to the vehicle. Whether or not the vehicle was declared a total loss is an important determination. In any event, I also move the process along to get clients in rental vehicles after an accident quickly. What If My Car Is Repairable After A Car Accident?

To determine if you have a claim for compensation resulting from a car accident their are several that I evaluate. Please note that the following is not all inclusive but a general overview. When someone is involved in a car accident their are a variety of factors that we most certainly do not have the time to discuss within this article and therefore there is no way this can be all inclusive.

The facts of the accident is a significant factor that I examine closely for every person that calls and requests a free consultation. The facts of the accident is essentially how did the accid
