FIELD SOBRIETY TESTS

There are many tests a police officer will turn to in order to determine whether or not you are intoxicated. The most common tests officers employ are a number of field sobriety tests.

These tests directly attempt to test a person’s mental and physical impairment, specifically one’s ability to listen to a direction and then physically carry it out.

The tests do not directly prove that you are intoxicated, rather the officer will use them as evidence against you in order to justify the arrest, and the courts will use them as evidence to convict you of the DUI offenses with which you are charged.

Any Seattle DUI lawyer with experience will tell you that taking any of the field sobriety tests is a no win proposition. However, if you did take, and failed, the tests there are still a number of strategies a skilled Seattle DUI lawyer can employ to question the reaults.

Every Seattle DUI attorney at Bradley Johnson Attorneys is certified in administering field sobriety tests. Our Seattle DUI attorneys have been through the same training as police officers, thus we know the ins and outs of these tests as well as the officers and the prosecution.
