It doesn't matter what you take. There is no delay in blood. The drive to a hospital or the drive to jail for breath. For breath there is still a 20 minute observation prior to the breath test anyway.Both tests are going to show what they show regardless.
are you serious? the breath test is on the side of the road and the blood test is at a hospital. those are your two choices. if u had two beers at dinner and are close to a .08 the extra time could get you a .07 there is a big difference between the two
The police factor in how long it takes to get to the hospital and how long it takes for the alcohol to diminish in your blood stream. They charge you for the time you get pulled over.

i have two friends that have got a dui a couple years back, and both paid about 5,000 just in dui classes & fines. one had a lawer, and the other didn't, so start saving up get your license restricted, and you will be able to go work or school only

i was with a friend that got into a highspeed chase and crashed the car. he and i were taken to jail and put into holding cells. by the time they gave him the breath test it was under .08 and he was not given the dui. that is FACT i was there. the cop that arrested him was pissed.

I don't drink alcohol, at all...Ever. I drink water & iced tea, that's it.
So, there are us few whom actually have never driven drunk or even buzzed for that matter.
I was speaking to the people that DO drink alcohol to an extent, some do it responsibly some dont. Just some people i have run across associate getting a dui, meaning you are totally wasted and a baligerant drunk etc etc...
You are one of the people that just dont drink alcohol and dont have to worry about getting a dui. that is ultimately the smartest thing to do, if you dont want a dui... dont drink.

Woow just reading the responses on this thread makes me feel good about not drinking at all..
I dont drink or smoke and i've heard DUI stories and been to alot of courts and seen lots of folks with DUI just struggling with everything..
Jail time, fines, lost their jobs, community services for 30+ days, court etc etc
Only thing i can recommend is getting a lawyer and learn from your mistakes...

I've read the majority of the responses, with most of them being negative to the OP. I find it ironic that most of you have a strong stance against drinking and driving...yet would streetrace at the drop of a hat. Sorry to say, but there is no difference between the two. Both have risks, both are misdemeanors (at a minimum) and both have STEEP fines. Not alot of difference...

Theres a very fine line there, thats why i dont even fuck with it.
sorry about your loss bud....
Fukk 2 drinks or 10 why even drive? There are cabs, the bus, freinds, booty calls, hookers, or hell you could even call a tow truck to tow your ass home. There are TONS of options besides driving.

You will be read your rights/arraigned at court, since you were released and not held. [ August 08, 2009, 05:12 AM: Message edited by: HaulinAss Motorsports ]

Do Not get a lawyer!!!!!!! I repeat do not get a Lawyer!!..I got one for 1800 and they do absolutely nothing for..they just go to court and do what u can do urself which is plead your case; also they dont have to read you ur rights. If u got caught in Santa Clara county ur gona have to work for 5 days..on the weekends or u can do ur days in jail..u choose!!
