In Florida, law enforcement agencies have the right to stop your vehicle if they suspect that you may be driving under the influence. If you are pulled over, you are only required to present identification and vehicle documentation. You are not required to answer any questions regarding your destination, number of drinks consumed, etc. You are not required to perform any roadside tests such as walking a straight line, reciting the alphabet, touching your nose, or moving your eyes from side to side. You will be requested to submit to a breathalyzer test, if you refuse you could be subjected to additional penalties. You will not be given the opportunity to contact a Florida DUI lawyer until after the test is performed.

If you are arrested for driving under the influence in Florida and your blood alcohol level is .08 percent or more, you need to contact a Florida Dui Lawyer immediately. Your driver's license will be taken away by the arresting officer at the time of your arrest. You may drive on your DUI ticket for ten days and you have a right to request an administrative hearing. During the administrative hearing you have the right to challenge the DMV in suspending your drivers license.
