This Orlando, Florida bail bonds agency shares an overview of what impaired driving means in the state of Florida.
ORLANDO, Fla., Sept. 20, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Central Florida Bonding, located minutes from the Orange County Jail in Orlando, Florida launches their newest blog focused on educating people on what impaired driving means.
Hadi Khouri, the owner of Central Florida Bonding, states, "you could face driving under the influence charges after taking an over-the-counter medicine (OTC). Many OTC medications and prescription medications have side effects that include slower reaction times, decreased hand-eye coordination, difficulty concentrating or judging time and distance, and other impairments that are similar to the effects of alcohol and illegal drugs."
Medications often include warning labels but if you aren't certain, you should ask your doctor or pharmacist about potential side effects. These tips and more can be accessed online at: https://cfborlando.com/impaired-driving/
Khouri adds, that a new medication might affect you in ways you didn't anticipate so always take precautions. Law enforcement officers are trained as drug recognition experts (DREs) to identify drug-impaired driving using a standardized evaluation that includes behavioral tests and physical assessments, such as breath alcohol testing, eye exams, and other behavioral and physical observations.
If there is sufficient evidence that the driver is impaired, drug recognition experts can collect blood or urine samples. Refusing to take a required roadside test at the time of arrest means your license will be automatically suspended for one full year.
After being arrested for DUI, you will likely receive a citation with instructions on how to complete the process. You must appear in court within 30 days of receiving the citation. If you fail to do so, you will be issued another citation and your license will be suspended until you pay the fine.
