Dui Investigation Probable Cause

Summary

In Florida, probable cause for a DUI investigation can be based on factors like making a wrong turn onto train tracks, flat tires, and early morning timing. Signs of tiredness and frustration, along with the officers observations and field sobriety tests, can also contribute. A high breath alcohol concentration (BAC) is 0.08% or higher. If a recalibrated breath test shows a BAC of 0.128%, it may be challenged due to calibration issues affecting results. Consistency and accuracy of test results are crucial in such cases.
