How does one beat a DUI prescription not alcohol when its not your fault but your cited anyway because of DUI and does the field test have to be filmed by the officer that took it?
DUI means Driving under the influence. It is left without which influence as a cause. It is a blanket law to cover Booze, drugs or what ever could cause erratic driving or public display of intoxication. The DUI law wasn't intended to cover just alcohol. Most over-the- counter prescriptions that can presumably cause impairment are labeled as such and fall under the DUI laws as a failure to follow a Doctor's advice or that of a drug manufacturer. DUI's are typically difficult to fight in court, so I would suggest you consult with an attorney to assist you. Most police cruisers have video cameras and during stops are on. Do they have to display it in court? No. It would be in the best interests of the citing officer to use it against you, but it doesn't have to entered into evidence if the compeling testimony and physical evidence is strong other wise. Again, a good lawyer can best answer this question for you governed by the jurisdiction of your area.
