Everett Lynnwood Snohomish County DUI Attorney: When is a DUI not a DUI?

Everett Lynnwood Snohomish County DUI Attorney: When is a DUI not a DUI?

I have had cases in the past when a client was charged with a DUI when the BAC registered significantly lower than the "per se" limit of 0.08.  Question is, is such a case actually a legitimate DUI?  Such is the case with a current Everett Snohomish County DUI case.  In this case the BAC is approximately half the "per se" BAC limit of 0.08 and the defendant did acceptably of the field sobriety tests ("failing" one and "passing" one).  The offer is to refile as a Negligent Driving First Degree charge.  Question is, is it all fair?  Probably not - probably the case should be dismissed and we are exploring those options.  However, any experienced Everett Snohomish County DUI attorney would know that the legal system isn't fair!
