Breathalyzer Refusal

Pursuant to Rhode Island Drunk Driving, DWI and DUI procedures, a driver is entitled to refuse to take a chemical test upon the request of law enforcement.  Of course, this almost always gives rise to a “refusal” charge being levied against the suspect. In Rhode Island, a criminal defense attorney will often times utilize this refusal charge as leverage to obtain a dismissal in the criminal DUI matter.  In light of the fact that a refusal charge is civil in nature as opposed to criminal, it is often a more favorable result to admit to the refusal charge in consideration of the criminal charge being dismissed.  This practice has reached customary status among Judges and prosecutors across Rhode Island.

If you have been charged with a breathalyzer refusal, it is extremely important to have an experienced criminal defense and dui attorney on your side to help get you the best possible result.
