Speak about DUIs : We are all aware of the dangers involved and risks that are taken when people consume alcohol and get behind the wheel. Unfortunately, for some, adhering to the message has required harsh penalties such as loss of driving privileges and hefty fines, or even jail terms.

DUI
& Driving Under The Influence: DUI History : Historically, guilt was established by observed driving symptoms, such as weaving; administering field sobriety tests, such as a walking a straight line heel-to-toe or standing on one leg for 30 seconds; and the arresting officer's subjective opinion of impairment. Starting with the introduction in Norway in 1936 of the world’s first per se law which made it an offense to drive with more than a specified amount of alcohol in the body, objective chemical tests have gradually supplemented the earlier purely judgmental ones. Limits for chemical tests are specific for blood alcohol concentration or concentration of alcohol in breath. Alabama DUI Future : And in what kind of absurd universe would a responsible legislative body consider, say, three DUI convictions in five years no cause for serious concern? No more than two in 10 years would seem more reasonable.

Alabama SR-22 DUI Penalty : An SR-22 is an official documentation required to redeem a suspended drivers license and get your car registered at the local department of Vehicles (DMV). A SR22 Filing is a form issued by an insurance company which removes a suspension order placed by the DMV's office on your driving privilege. The most common reason for an SR22 filing is when you are arrested for Driving Under Intoxication (DUI) or Driving While Intoxicated (DWI). The filing provides a guarantee to the state that an insurance company has issued at least minimum liability coverage for the person making that filing and that the insurance company will notify the DMV should the insurance ever lapse for any reason.
