If you are stopped by police, you will probably be asked to take some type of test to determine your blood alcohol level, such as a blood test or a breathalyzer test. In most states, your license will be suspended for failure to take a test, regardless of whether you are ultimately found guilty of DUI. In Pennsylvania, for example, refusal to submit to any type of blood alcohol test automatically results in a one year suspension of your driver's license. You can still be prosecuted for DUI even if you refuse to submit to a blood alcohol test. While it is important that you do not make any incriminating statements to police when you are suspected of DUI, you should always act in a courteous and respectful manner to an investigating police officer. A police officer's testimony could have a direct bearing on your sentencing in a DUI case at a later time. Click here if you want to learn some more important information |
