I’ve been arrested for DUI and taken to the police station – What happens now?

The following abbreviated chapter is from the book: DUI/DWI Virginia Arrest Survival Guide – The Guilt Myth Coauthored by Michael C. Tillotson & Robert Battle, Virginia DUI Defense Lawyers.

CHAPTER 7

“I’VE BEEN ARRESTED AND TAKEN TO THE POLICE STATION –
WHAT HAPPENS NOW?”

You have been arrested. Your car has been towed away, or driven home by a passenger or other person who the officer determines is not impaired. Remember that you will still be under observation from the time you get in the police vehicle until you are released, and anything you say or do is noted and placed in a police report.

“Can I refuse to take a test?”


“What kind of test should I take—blood, breath or urine?”

“What do I need to know about the Breath Test?”

“What about a lawyer?”

“When will I be released?”

You can request a FREE copy of this book from our office.
