Dui Charges Without Tests

Summary

You can be charged with DUI in Virginia even without a breathalyzer test, field sobriety test, or an officer seeing you drive. The charge could be based on the officers observations of impairment. However, the lack of these tests may impact the strength of the case against you. Always consult a legal professional for specific advice.

In Virginia, it's possible for an officer to use other observations, such as your behavior or physical appearance, to charge you with DUI. However, without tests or evidence of you driving, the case may be weaker. Always consult a legal professional for specific advice.
