Tampa DUI Attorneys are often asked about the specifics of DUI checkpoints. These checkpoints lead to many DUI arrests throughout the greater Tampa Bay Area. Many Tampa DUIs originate at DUI checkpoints as opposed to the driver being pulled over for poor driving or some other reason.
We have posted elsewhere on our Tampa DUI Attorney Blog concerning the specifics of checkpoints and what to expect at a DUI checkpoint. We discussed elsewhere on our Tampa DUI Attorney Blog that DUIs have harsh consequences, Florida Statute Section 316.193 outlines them. Without going too far into the matter, there are very specific legal requirements for Tampa DUIs originating out of a DUI Checkpoint. The upcoming DUI Checkpoints in Tampa, Florida are as follows:
