Frequently Asked Questions

What is the legal BAC limit for DUI?

For drivers 21+: 0.08% in all 50 states (Utah: 0.05%). For commercial drivers: 0.04%. For drivers under 21: most states have zero tolerance (0.00-0.02%). Enhanced penalties apply at higher BAC levels (typically 0.15%+).

Can I refuse a breathalyzer test?

Under implied consent laws, refusing a breathalyzer results in automatic license suspension (typically 6-12 months for first refusal). However, the prosecution may have less evidence without a BAC reading. Consult a DUI attorney before deciding.

Will a traffic ticket affect my insurance?

Yes. Most moving violations add points to your driving record, which can increase insurance premiums by 10-40%. Some states allow traffic school to prevent points. Serious violations (DUI, reckless driving) can cause much larger increases.

Can I fight a traffic ticket without a lawyer?

Yes. Request a court hearing, gather evidence (photos, witness statements, calibration records for speed detection devices), and present your case. Many tickets are dismissed when the officer fails to appear or when evidence is insufficient.
