In Georgia, it is illegal to drive with a BAC (blood alcohol content) of 0.08 percent or higher. For drivers under the age of 21, the legal limit is 0.02 percent.
Even a first-time impaired-driving offense carries stiff penalties. You may be sentenced up to one year in jail and probation as well as receiving hefty fines. Your license will be suspended for at least one year. In addition, you may be ordered to attend alcohol evaluations and treatment.
The risk goes beyond mere legal consequences. Your career opportunities may be at stake when employers require background checks. You could even be fired from your job if it requires a clean driving record.
Insurance will be harder to come by. Most companies will raise your premium rates, if they do not drop your coverage altogether. You will also need to obtain SR-22 insurance.
If this doesn’t sound appealing, please understand that you can fight your DUI charge. A qualified and experienced DUI lawyer will closely examine your case to present your best defense. Did you know that physical ailments such as acid reflux or dental problems could create a falsely high breath test reading? There are many things that could explain a failed field sobriety or BAC test. The best lawyers are more adept at successful ways to challenge incriminating results.
