What Is Considered a DWI in New Jersey?

In New Jersey, a motorist can get a DWI for operating a vehicle while under the influence. This means that the driver’s blood alcohol concentration (also known as BAC) is .08% or higher.

However, you can still be convicted of driving while under the influence if your blood alcohol concentration is below 0.08 percent. This is because consuming small amounts of alcohol can still result in decreased reaction time as well as impair your vision, judgment, and impact alertness. If consuming alcohol negatively impacts your driving in any way, you can be convicted of drunk driving.

What are Strategies that can Be Used in DWI Defense?

Don’t assume a conviction is inevitable, as in fact, several strategies can prove to be effective in getting a DWI charge dismissed, reduced, or result in a “not guilty” verdict.

Some of the defenses that could be explored in your case include but are not limited to:

  • You were a victim of an illegal police stop
  • Roadside sobriety testing was performed incorrectly
  • The breath-testing unit was faulty
  • The officer performing breath testing was not properly trained
  • The breath testing unit was not properly maintained
  • The officer was engaged in racial profiling
  • The state laws regarding roadside checkpoints were violated when you were pulled over
  • You were not read your rights
  • You have a medical condition that could affect the results from the breath testing unit

If your charges are the result of a blood test after an accident, several defense strategies are available, including issues related to the chain of custody.
