Running a Red Light & DUI in Daytona Beach

STATE OF FLORIDA vs. ALLISON M VICK

Case Summary

Our client, Allison Vick, was pulled over for running a red light directly in front of a police car. The officers performing the stop allegedly noticed signs of impairment, so they proceeded to have our client perform field sobriety exercises. When Ms. Vick performed the field sobriety exercises poorly, she was arrested for DUI. On top of that, our client agreed to take a breath test, which produced a result nearly three times the legal limit.

Ms. Vick sought the legal help of an experienced DUI defense attorney at Aaron Delgado & Associates. Once we got to work on her case, we filed a Motion to Suppress, alleging that the breath test was a product of coercion by law enforcement. The Court granted the Motion and suppressed the breath test results. However, the State was still unwilling to offer a reduction in the DUI charge. When the case proceeded to trial, the defendant was found not guilty in less than 30 minutes.

If Accused, You Need a DUI Lawyer

Just as in the case of our client, a DUI arrest can result from an officer witnessing a lesser traffic offense. According to Florida DUI Laws, a DUI conviction may result in fines, license suspension, mandatory jail time, and other collateral consequences of DUI which are often overlooked. The severity of DUI consequences will depend on the accused's DUI history and other details of the case. For more information about what happens when you get a DUI, check out our DUI FAQs.
