Expert Breathalyzer Errors Defense: Know Your Legal Rights

Have You Been Charged with DUI Based on a Breathalyzer Test?

Imagine being pulled over, the flashing lights of the police car reflecting in your rear-view mirror. The officer suspects you have had a little too much to drink and decides to administer a breathalyzer test. You comply, because you understand the consequences of refusal. The next thing you know, you're facing a DUI charge based on the results. But what if the device was wrong? At Charles E Lance Law Offices, we know that breathalyzer test errors can drastically affect the outcome of your DUI case, and we're here to educate you on common errors and defenses.

Breathalyzers are not foolproof. They are sensitive instruments that require proper maintenance, calibration, and correct operation. When any of these factors are not meticulously managed, the accuracy of the reading can be compromised. Charles E Lance Law Offices is dedicated to illuminating these pitfalls and supporting those wrongly accused due to testing inaccuracies. We offer access to attorneys who specialize in challenging unreliable test results.

The precision of breathalyzer devices hinges on strict calibration and regular maintenance. Failure to adhere to these requirements can lead to inaccurately high blood alcohol content (BAC) readings. Miscalibration can occur if the device has not been recently or properly serviced, and if the breathalyzer's software is not updated to reflect the most current standards. Providing solid defense begins with closely examining the device's maintenance records.

Our legal team knows exactly what to look for when scrutinizing the history of the breathalyzer that led to your charge. The tiniest oversight during maintenance can be the difference between a conviction and an acquittal.

Even the most advanced technology is vulnerable to human error. The results of a breathalyzer greatly depend on the officer's proficiency and adherence to procedure. Inexperienced or hurried officers might misread the results, administer the test incorrectly, or fail to wait the necessary period after you last consumed alcohol, potentially leading to falsely high readings.

At Charles E Lance Law Offices, we question every aspect of the breathalyzer testing procedure to ensure your rights were not breached due to human error.

Did you know that mouth alcohol alcohol that stays in the mouth and not from the lungs can skew breathalyzer results? Residual mouth alcohol might come from recent use of mouthwash, breath fresheners, or even burping. Additionally, certain medical conditions, such as acid reflux, could cause stomach alcohol to be present in the mouth, leading to elevated BAC readings. It's nuances like these that our attorneys are trained to pinpoint and argue in your case.

If you believe your DUI charge is a result of an inaccurate breathalyzer test, don't wait. Call us immediately at (512) 501-3654 to discuss your situation and explore potential defenses.

Driving under the influence cases can be complex, and the strategies employed by attorneys vary depending on the particulars of each case. Understanding and challenging breathalyzer errors is a nuanced process but one that Charles E Lance Law Offices navigates with expertise. Our attorneys break down every factor that could contribute to a faulty result, and we've adeptly identified a host of potential defenses.

We don't just look at the numbers. We delve into the specifics of the machine, the operator, and the circumstances surrounding the test. We understand that a successful defense hinges on these details, and we're equipped to exploit any breaches in proper procedure or technology failures.

One way we defend our clients is by contesting the breathalyzer's inherent reliability-or lack thereof. Various models of breathalyzers exist, and not all of them meet the same standards of accuracy. We investigate whether the specific model used in your test is prone to errors or has a history of inaccurate readings.

This defense can become particularly potent if we discover a pattern of discrepancies with a specific device or model.

For a breathalyzer result to be admissible in court, the test must be administered in strict compliance with established protocols. Our team has an in-depth knowledge of these procedures and can identify when they've been violated. Protocol violations could include the failure to observe you for a period before administering the test, not providing clear instructions, or performing the test in an environment that could interfere with the results.

When mistakes are made, we're there to highlight them. Any misstep by the administering officer can be crucial in proving your innocence.

It's not widely known, but certain diets and medical conditions can falsely influence breathalyzer outcomes. For instance, individuals on high-protein, low-carbohydrate diets or those with diabetes can have elevated levels of ketones in their breath, which some devices may mistake for alcohol. Unveiling these personal factors can make a pivotal difference.

We stand ready to present evidence of any applicable medical or dietary factors that may have compromised your BAC reading.
