Any experienced DUI criminal defense lawyer in Eugene, Oregon, or anywhere else in Oregon for that matter, is often as whether one arrested for drunk driving (aka driving under the influence of intoxicants, DUII, Driving While Intoxicated, DWI) should take an alcohol breath test when asked by a police officer. The answer to this DUI criminal law question, as to many criminal defense question, whether one is in Eugene, Oregon, or elsewhere in Oregon, is “it depends.” As an example, if one has a prior DUI conviction, and one will not be able to participate in the Oregon Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants Diversion Program, or if the DUI arrest one is facing involved an accident where someone was hurt or injured, then the DUI arrestee should consider whether is is better to accept the significantly longer Implied Consent Suspension than to provide an breath test Intoxilyzer 8000 breath sample.
