What Happens After an Arrest at a Sobriety Checkpoint? MA Criminal Defense Attorney Steve Brooks

www.brooksandcrowley.com Massachusetts criminal defense attorney Steve Brooks talks sobriety check points and what happens if you’ve been arrested for driving under the influence. Driving while under the influence (or DUI) arrests can happen when you’re pulled over for reckless driving or if you happen to go through a sobriety check point. A sobriety check point is where officers are gathered to check each driver for being impaired. If the officer believes you’re impaired in any way, you will be asked to perform tests that will show whether or not you’re driving under the influence. These tests are given by officers from both Massachusetts state police and the local police department. These tests have to be proven and without doubt in a court of law in the state of Massachusetts. We need to show that the tests were performed correctly by the officers and that the machines were working correctly. The burden is on the government to show that you were guilty of the charge; if they cannot do that then we can get these harmful charges against you dropped. Watch the video now to learn more.
