A DUI checkpoint, also known as a sobriety checkpoint, is a location where law enforcement officers are stationed to check drivers for signs of intoxication and impairment. If you find yourself pulled over at a DUI checkpoint, it’s important to know your rights.
If you deny a breath test, you will be arrested, and the officer will administer a required breath or blood test at the station. If you deny the test at the station, your license will be suspended.
The first amendment protects your right to photograph and record in public. As long as you don’t get in their way, it’s perfectly legal to take photos and videos of police officers in every state. If an officer is blocking or obstructing the camera and ordering you to stop recording them, they’re violating your first amendment right.
If you’re going to record an office, it must be done openly and not surreptitiously (a number of states bar people from recording private conversations without consent).
If you’ve been charged with driving under the influence, it’s vital to contact a criminal defense lawyer as soon as possible. Arizona has strict DUI laws, and you don’t want a DUI on your record. Request a free consultation with Nava Law Firm today.
