ZAP! Haha, the only reason I try not to come off as a total irrefutable douchebag on the internet lol.
Good thing that lawyerspeed.com is filled with so many knowledgable people.
DWAI. NYS does not have DUIs.
Is everyone just making up shit in this thread?
Dear god someone finally makes sense.
What part of ZERO TOLERANCE dont people get. When you are under 21 and driving, it doesn’t matter if you drank too much NyQuil or was doing shots at a bar. You blow higher than a 0.0 you are in trouble with the police and will be charged. End of story. Not “well if you blow a .02 a lawyer can get you off” bullshit.
This girl is under 21, drank, and killed someone. She should be punished at the highest penalty of the law. End of story. If someone who was of age to drink and made a mistake, they live with it and should be punished but different standards since one person was legally able to drink and the other was not.
no dui for driving high? sorry if im wrong. still not a dwi though.
LOL at this thread! Obviously she is super classy by the myspace pics mordak posted. If she didn’t ruin her parent’s life by blowing dudes on film she has for sure now.
lol brutal
If Police have reason to believe that you are driving under the influence of a drug or controlled substance you can get arrested and get a DWAI (Driving While Ability Impaired). I am not sure exactly how other stations do it but Town of Tonawanda takes you to Kenmore Mercy where you are forced to give blood and urine samples in front of 3 witnesses (you give the urine sample in a closed room with a waterless toilet and no sink) which is 2 RN’s and a police officer. The labs are run and they get a tox screen. All reports are run and sealed and used against you if you fail the tests.
:run::wiggle::burnout:
x2
I laugh at people who say its perfectly legal to drive high. You can get slapped with a DWAI being buzzed, high, drugged up on medicine, etc. The officer just needs to prove whether through blood, urine, etc that you were in an altered state and since an altered states rely on some chemical in your body, its easy to prove.
So what happens if he thinks you’re smoking pot and you test positive because you smoked 3 weeks before? Do you still get found guilty?
Just a general FYI, the drug test they give you tests for opiates, barbiturates, alcohol , cannabinoids, cocaine, and methadone.
They cannot check for methylenedioxymethamphetamine or ecstasy for the less educated. Do not remember why they cannot test for it but it was something to do with time from what I recall.
The tests are so incredibly accurate that they can tell when you smoked, whether it was direct inhalation or second hand. It’s all about concentration of the drug -vs- blood. Now when I say they can tell when I do not mean down to the hour, but damn close.
Interesting. I never thought they’d get it that down since there’s so many variables involved. (Water consumption, metabolic rate, number of fat cells, etc.)
I mean lets be serious here. Anyone who has actually been FUCKED up from smoking pot knows that they are fucked up when they smoke. When you are that baked the concentration is ridiculous. Not to mention a quick eye scan from a doctor along with lab results to back it up. You are pretty much fucked.
Word. I was thinking more in terms of them throwing it on when you weren’t fucked up out of your mind, as an extra charge when the cop was being a prick and couldn’t get you for what he wanted to, then you being found guilty because you smoked previously.
for anyone doubting it, she can MOST CERTAINLY be charged with a DUI in NYS for blowing a .02 at the age of 17. at .02 she is considered legally intoxicated for a minor and with 0 tolerance she will be FUBAR’ for a long time to come
ask me how i know. ask me
Yea, police are pretty scummy sometimes. Everything is normally hush hush when they come in. My favorite Police; ER moment, is when they tasered a prisoner they brought in who needed his blood sugar tested. After I stuck his finger for the test he kept milking the blood out and flicking it all over the room and when he hit the cop in the face with it…game over. I almost shit myself laughing at him while he was jumping around getting electrocuted while handcuffed to the bed. Then I got to give him an EKG to make sure his heart did not explode.
Back on topic.
This chick is going to either get off clean or go down…hard.
DUI or DWAI?
Fbrenden sounded pretty sure there is no such thing as a DUI in NYS???
mine was a DWAI.
nys is DWI or DWAI if i remember correctly.
(DWI being driving while intoxicated=same thing as DUI)
