Saggi Law Firm has successfully had impaired driving and impaired by alcohol charges reduced or dismissed entirely.
An impaired by alcohol and/or impaired operation charge can range from simple operation, care or control of a motor vehicle or vessel while impaired to causing bodily harm or death. Separate charges can stem from instances of refusing to provide a blood, breath, oral fluid or urine sample when under suspicion of causing bodily harm or death via impaired operation.
If found guilty of Impaired or Drunk Driving (DUI)/Impaired by Alcohol charges, the ramifications could be disastrous. Even under a first-time offence, consequences include:
Criminal record limiting future employment opportunities and restricting international travel
Fines possibly exceeding $1,000 CAD
1 year of driving prohibition
12 months with an installed ignition-control device on all motor vehicles that you operate, costing around $125.00 CAD per month
Enrolment in the Back on Track education course, costing approximately $600.00 CAD
Raised car insurance rates that can grow to up to 4-5 times your current ones
repeat offenders face all OF THE ABOVE, in addition to mandatory jail time and up to a lifetime driving prohibition.
