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. As you can imagine, DUI checkpoints present a whole set of unique challenges and potential defense for Tampa DUI attorneys.
