Urine Test

When a person is arrested for a DUI, a chemical test is required to measure the alcohol content in the blood (BAC). The three chemical tests available are: blood, breath and urine testing. Urine testing refers to the chemical examination of the urine in the detection of drugs or alcohol. Urine testing is generally only given as an option where a person is arrested of driving under the influence of drugs.

Of the three DUI Tests, urine tests can be one of the best options for a defendant. This is because the results are often questionable. Your Shelby County DUI attorney can point out the weaknesses in a urine test as grounds for your defense. A urine test does not determine the concentration of alcohol in a person’s system or whether or not the person was illegally impaired.

So what happens if your attorney proves that the urine test should be discredited against you? Your Shelby County DUI charge can be reduced to a reckless driving charge.

If you have a reckless driving charge, you won’t have to face the harsh penalties associated with a Shelby County DUI charge. Higher insurance premiums, steep fines, jail, community service and alcohol education classes will no longer loom over you!
