On Sunday July 25, 2010 a street sweeper was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence when his street sweeper was found overturned. The driver was not injured in the accident. The solo-car collision occurred near the Lake Perris Fairgrounds after 10:30 on Sunday morning. The reality is that a California drunk driving incident can occur to anyone at any time. If you are carrying a commercial license and are arrested for driving under the influence in California then you can face very harsh consequences that could suspend your commercial license for a year on a first offense and indefinitely on a second or subsequent offense. In addition if you are arrested for a California DUI in your commercial vehicle then the presumption is that your blood alcohol level is under a .04% at the time of driving. No matter what the circumstances of your drunk driving incident, you need to contact a California DUI lawyer immediately.

A 43 year old woman was drunk driving not once but twice in 3 Days. The woman was arrested by the same officer both times while wearing pajamas and no shoes both times. The Sheriff's office reported that the woman was pulled over and arrested on Saturday and released the same day. That following Monday the woman was stopped and cited by the same arresting officer with a blood alcohol level twice the limit. In the state of California it is illegal to drive with a BAC of .08% or higher. If you are charged with a DUI you will be facing two separate cases: One is with the DMV and the other is with the court. When you are arrested and charged with drunk driving in California you only have 10 days to contact the California Department of Motor Vehicles to request a hearing. If you don't, your license will automatically be suspended starting 30 days of your arrest for DUI.
