You need to take action now to do everything that can be done to protect your driving privileges, avoid serious fines and avoid almost certain jail time. Utah has some of the hardest laws against impaired driving. The worst part is, that instead of looking for visibly impaired drivers, who are driving improperly, Utah police routinely “fish” for DUI’s by stopping people almost randomly for traffic infractions, such as failure to signal for two seconds before changing lanes, etc., in an effort to “smell alcohol on the breath” ofthe driver. No smell of alcohol equals a warning, and any smell of alcohol, even from occupants, warrants a full fledged investigation; snaring innocent people intending to obey the law, in the criminal justice system, which then treats them as any other criminal. Many people make the mistake of concentrating on .080 as the legal limit, and although they are partially correct; that is only one part of the two – pronged statute. In Utah, one can be arrested for DUI who has ACTUAL PHYSICAL CONTROL of a VEHICLE with either: (1) Per Se – Having an alcohol concentration of .080 or greater in blood or breath testing, OR; (2) Impairment – Having ANY alcohol OR drug in one’s blood, such that one is “impaired,” which is from the officer’s point of view. VEHICLE: Means any device upon which a person may be drawn or transported on a highway except those devices on stationary tracks. Please note that this includes boats, ATV’s, and Snowmobiles. ACTUAL PHYSICAL CONTROL: An easy definition is as follows; if the keys to the device are in the ignition, and you are in the vehicle, you are in ACTUAL PHYSICAL CONTROL. Thus sleeping in the back seat of a car even with radio playing, is actual physical control and you can be charged with a DUI. Warning ! – if you have even a sip of alcohol, or took a Lortab three days ago; you ARE at risk of being impaired and risk receiving a DUI.
