And remember, just because you are arrested for DUI at a checkpoint doesn’t mean that you are automatically guilty as charged. California sobriety checkpoints must adhere to very strict requirements. If they don’t, your arrest and subsequent case may be dismissed. Be sure to consult with a California DUI attorney immediately following a sobriety checkpoint arrest.
Drive safely!
