⚖️ Older adults, individuals with mobility issues, and those under stress are especially vulnerable to misinterpretation.
The consequences of a wrongful DUI arrest are life-altering: court costs, insurance hikes, reputational harm, and months of unnecessary stress.
Whether it's a DUI or a DWAI stop, what you say- & don't say- matters.
You have the right to remain silent. You have the right to an attorney. Use them.
One conversation with law enforcement could change your future- make sure you're protected.

Did you know that according to Colorado law, any driver with 5 nanograms of Delta-9-THC, the main psychoactive chemical in cannabis, per milliliter of blood can be prosecuted for DUI? #denverlawyers
👉 If you're pulled over, remember:
✅ You have the right to remain silent
✅ You can refuse roadside sobriety tests (but know the consequences)
✅ You have the right to legal representation
🚨 Holiday Weekends = Higher DUI Arrest Rates 🚔
In Colorado, law enforcement ramps up DUI patrols during major holidays—like the 4th of July. While the goal is public safety, increased stops mean more people are arrested, sometimes without fully understanding their rights.
FACT: You have the right to remain silent. You are required to provide basic information (license, registration, insurance), but you do not have to answer questions about where you've been, whether you've been drinking, or how much you've had.
#KnowYourRights
MYTH: If I blew under .08%, I can't be charged with a #DUI or DWAI, right?
FACT: In #Colorado, you can still face DWAI charges if you BAC is between .05% and .08%. And if an officer believes your driving was impaired- even slightly- you could still be arrested.
An impaired driving arrest generally leads to administrative, or licence-related penalties.
However, if you're convicted of DUI, DUI per se, or DWAI in court, there are also criminal penalties to contend with in addition to the administrative consequences.

Here’s the truth:
🔹 Improper testing procedures
🔹 Uncalibrated equipment
🔹 Chain of custody issues
🔹 Delays in blood analysis …can all compromise the validity of the results.
#DUI#toxicology
In DUI cases, prosecutors often rely heavily on toxicology reports—like blood or breath test results—to prove intoxication. But these tests aren’t always accurate or admissible.
