Officers may choose one or a combination of tests to determine blood alcohol content (BAC). The breath test is known as a breathalyzer and requires you to blow into it to get a reading. The blood and urine tests require biological fluid samples to measure alcohol content. Under Illinois implied consent law, when you get a driver’s license you agree to consent to a chemical test administered by a police officer if DUI is suspected. Such tests are administered after an arrest and can be used to build a case against you.
It is possible to be charged with DUI even if the test is refused. Refusal of one or more chemical tests with a DUI conviction leads to extended license suspension. The length of suspension is based on refusal of the test and whether or not you have a first-time DUI offense.
The intricacies of DUI laws are complex and ever-changing. Seek the experienced counsel of our firm to help you understand your rights and build a defense on your behalf. We will analyze the test results and the circumstances under which they were administered and challenge the validity of those results.
