New Arizona DUI Law

Alcohol-related accidents have been extremely increasing in Arizona. It is right time that the Arizona legislators have taken precautionary measures to avoid such accidents in future. Last year Arizona ranked sixth in the nation for alcohol-related deaths. On September 19, 2007 the new DUI law, targeted on first time DUI offenders - "super extreme", came into effect in Arizona which was signed into law by Governor Janet Napolitano on 18 May of 2007. It is now convincing that Arizona has become one of the toughest DUI laws in the country.

Get Your Drivers License Back After A DUI And Get Your Life Back

Throughout the nightmare of first getting pulled over, the sobriety tests, chemical tests, reading of rights, being handcuffed and placed under arrest, transported, booked, jailed, processed and released, a huge number of factors can get in the way of making a DUI conviction a perfect "clean-cut-and-dried" case. DUI cases are born by the hundreds (even thousands) every day and certainly, not all of them go to full conviction and loss of a drivers license after DUI. Too many factors enter the scenario such as human error, improper following of procedure, insufficient evidence and, of course, clever lawyers that prevent all drunk driving cases from closing. Nevertheless, far too many cases do close resulting in no chance for a license after DUI due to small details that the driver is unaware of and, if exposed in court, would be grounds for a dismissal.
