DUI REDUCED TO RECKLESS DRIVING (JANUARY 2009)
Even though defendant admitted to drinking two margaritas and providing a breath sample of .123, Tampa Florida DUI lawyer Stephen Higgins was still able to get the DUI charge reduced to a Reckless Driving. Defendant was stopped by Hillsborough County deputies for weaving within his lane and performed Field Sobriety Exercises on video. Defendant’s performance of the exercises was excellent thereby failing to demonstrate any significant signs of impairment. Arguing to the State Attorney’s office that a jury would not believe that the deputy had a valid reason for a DUI arrest, Stephen convinced them to reduce the charge. (Ref. No. 1223-XCM)
