The first question that people often ask me when they find out that I am a DUI Lawyer is "What do I do when I get stopped for a DUI?" Before providing any information on the subject, I must first advise-don't drive drunk. Get a cab or designate a driver beforehand. Most places will even call a cab for you if you are unable to do so. In the long run, it will outweigh the cost of going through a criminal case for DUI.

If you're stopped for a DUI, what do you do?
• Be respectful to the officer but say as little as possible. Anything you say can and will be used against you.
• Have your license ready. That way, an officer can't say that you were fumbling through things or couldn't find them or handed over the wrong document.
• Don't perform a physical sobriety test. There's a 95% that you will be arrested for DUI after a field sobriety test anyways, so why give the officer more evidence against you. Unless you are a ballet dancer, you're probably not going to complete the tests according to the standards that the police officer wants you too.

Remember, you don't have to answer any questions. Don't tell the officer how many drinks you've had, where you are coming from, where you are going, or anything else.
