Legal Question in DUI Law in California
Possible drunk driving resulting in a rear ending
My 23 yr old daughter was involved in an accident. She allegedly rear-ended a vehicle stopped at a light. She was dazed and in shock. The officers on site said that she appeared inebriated. They said that she refused a breath test and took her to jail with out taking her to the hospital. She has pain in her head, neck and chin. Should I have her blood drawn when I pick her up? She needs to go to the hospital to be checked.

Get it tested if it is within a few hours of being arrested. Later than that, it won't matter.

Yes, you should have her independently tested asap, with the results being revealed only in confidence to you, and your daughter. If you need to discuss, you may reach me today at (562) 929-7422, or eamil me. Attorney George Woodworth
