When an officer writes a ticket, can

he cite a road he followed you on

Should he cite the road he pulled

you over on, in the ticket?

Re: Dui

Hello. The police officer is not bound to write the citation for the road he pulled you over on. He is bound to charge you with the offense at the location he observed you commit the offense. This is an important distinction. DUI's are very serious matters. You should have legal representation. Will be happy to answer any additional questions that you may have.
