DRUNK DRIVERS AGAINST MAD MOTHERS

SAN BERNADINO, CA (ddamm.com) - This story comes from a lady that was at a wedding reception with her husband.  After an argument, the women drove home and parked in the garage.  Several minutes later, an officer shows up at the door.  The officer said he was just up the street and wanted to check if things were OK asking her to submit to sobriety testing which was refused.  After being handcuffed in front of her children, she relented and agreed to the field tests and failed the breathalyzer exam.  She was arrested and the car was impounded and towed right out of her garage.  

Is this legal?  Can't one claim that they drank a little bit of liquer after getting into the safe confines of her home?  It depends on the jury and most likely they'll believe the experts.  Absorbing alcohol takes about a half an hour depending on one's prevous food consumption and metabolism.  The woman also made the critical mistake of submitting to the field tests.  She should accepted being arrested then visiting the station to take a blood test which is more accurate and takes longer for results to return.  Instead of having her license revoked, she'd be able to get her license back from the DMV within 10 days and the courts would decide the fate of her license several months later.
