3. What if I was below .08
Understand, of course, that zero-tolerance cases mean that minors can be significantly below .08 and still be found guilty of violating the zero-tolerance law. However, depending on the facts of a particular case, if blood alcohol levels are below .08, then it is less likely that the Mendocino County District Attorney will seek a full DUI conviction as compared to a wet reckless, or, even better, an infraction that may be dismissed upon successful completion of some sort of educational remediation.
If blood alcohol levels are as low as .01 or .02, additional defenses may be mounted by your Ukiah DUI lawyer in court (and at DMV if necessary) to attempt to avoid a DMV suspension as well. Consult with a Mendocino County DUI lawyer about your specific case.
