Sleeping It Off - Jonathan Blecher, P.A.

Описание: http://www.duilawdefense.com/ - (305) 670-1800 | In Miami, you can be arrested for DUI even if you weren't driving! Officers can arrest you if you were asleep behind the wheel, because they believe that you had actual physical control of the vehicle.

Obviously, if you were asleep at a stop light, this is much different than being asleep in a parked car. But officers have legal precedent to arrest suspects in either situation.

I recently took on a case in which a young man parked his car, put plenty of time in the meter, and went to a club. He left the club with a few too many drinks and decided to get in his car and sleep it off. The police officer still arrested him for being asleep behind the wheel.

Fortunately, I was able to establish that he didn't drive or leave the location in an intoxicated state by using his time stamp for the parking meter.
