| Additional Important NJ DUI and DWI Facts: In the State of New Jersey the following offenses are not considered different: DWI (Driving While Intoxicated) DUI, (Driving While Under the Influence Driving While Impaired Refusal to Take Breath Test Example: You had a prior Driving While Intoxicated conviction downgraded in another state to Driving While Impaired. Your conviction downgrade would not be upheld by the New Jersey courts and you would be sentenced as if the downgrade never happened. Thus, if you received another DWI in N.J. you would be sentenced in New Jersey as if you received a conviction for the original DWI charge and you would be sentenced as a second time offender. The State of New Jersey does not recognize any other states downgrade of a DWI / DUI Charge In The State of New Jersey The penalties for refusal to submit to any alcohol, blood or urine test can be the same or more than you would have gotten should you have been convicted of the actual DWI or DUI Charge In the State of New Jersey A DWI or DUI may be proven by 4 methods: Breath Test Blood Test Urine Test Roadside Physical Tests The four most common roadside physical tests used to prove a DWI or DUI in NJ Gaze Nystagmus (following pen or finger) Walk and Turn One legged stand Recite the alphabet test Most DWI Arrests in NJ are not criminal offenses and are considered traffic offenses with jail terms possible (1st offense) and mandatory (2nd and 3rd+ Offenses) However, many countries including Canada don't recognize this fact and consider it the same as a felony criminal offense for denial of entry purposes. Thus, you may be barred from entering that foreign country for life that you always dreamed to see even just for a short vacation or cruise. If you are an immigrant a DWI in NJ can mean the revocation of your status or even deportation or removal. |

Both Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) and Driving While Under the Influence (DUI) are classified in New Jersey as a motor
vehicle offense unless a party is injured in an accident, in which case it can then be charged as a criminal offense. Once
convicted in New Jersey you cannot expunge the record of a DWI or DUI off your license, regardless of how much time has
passed. Therefore, to keep your low insurance rates and your driving record clean an expert defense is needed. In many
cases our defense costs less than just your first years insurance premium increase should you be convicted. Each DWI/DUI
is based on different facts and circumstances. If any attorney quotes you a fee before asking about your case you know that
you went to the wrong lawyer as you will not be getting a defense tailored to your case. At the Law Office of Attorney H.
Scott Aalsberg we are committed to helping you win your case. It is against the law for an attorney to guarantee a result,
however, by choosing the best DWI / DUI attorney you put the best chance of winning on your side. Call today and set up

In State vs. Pedro C. Anicama, decided on
July 13, 2017, The New Jersey Appellate
Court Ruled that a NJ DWI, 3rd time
offender must serve his mandatory jail
sentence at one time. The court noted that
the DUI statute was recently amended to
require persons committing a third or
subsequent DUI to serve at least 180 days
in a county jail or workhouse and preclude
them from serving any portion of their
sentence in community service or serving
all their sentence in inpatient
rehabilitation. Thus, the court found that
the amendment intended to strengthen the
penalties for a third or subsequent DUI
violation, which would be undermined by
permitting offenders to spend less than a
consecutive 180 days in confinement. But
remember its not the prosecutor or judges
job to make sure you get every defense
that you deserve for your DWI, its your DWI

The NJ DWI and
The Breath Test:
The Breath Test:
The blood/urine test is the least used
test to prove a DWI due to the tests
expense. Due to the high cost, a drug
or urine test is generally only used in
accident cases or when drugs rather
than alcohol intoxication is suspected.
Normally the blood draw or urine
sample will occur at a hospital or other
emergency facility by a doctor or
nurse. These tests are the most
accurate tests for blood alcohol
concentration. If the driver does not
or cannot consent to the test, a search
warrant must be issued by a judge
showing the reason for the test, with
the most used reason being: exigent
circumstances. Generally a police
officer can establish the probable
cause, the exigent circumstances and
the overall reasonableness of the
police conduct warranting the need for
the test. The best way to attack a DWI
in NJ with a blood or urine test is by
attacking: 1) the procedures used to
draw the blood or urine, and 2) the
chain of custody of the kit used and
sample tested. A DWI with a blood or
urine test is considered the hardest
DWI test to beat by most DWI lawyers.

| New NJ DWI Law for 2018 |
In a recent NJ Supreme Court Case
decided on March 27, 2018 the court
eased the rules for when a police
officer may take a blood sample
without a warrant for a DWI charge.
In State vs. Shayna Zalcberg two
relatively New Police Officers
arrived at the scene of an accident
and were informed by Medics that
the driver smelled of alcohol. Due to
the persons medical condition they
were taken to the hospital. At the
hospital the Police Officers asked
the hospital to draw blood to be
analyzed for its alcohol content.
Prior to this case the court had
mandated that a warrant was
required for any draw of blood. The
court reasoned since the Police
Officers in question were new on the
force and had never been taught the
procedure on how to obtain a search
warrant and the fact that the alcohol
would naturally disspate the court
held the taking of the blood sample
was constitutional under exigency
circumstances. Therefore, as you
can see from this case even the NJ
Courts court will bend over
backwards to sustain a DWI
conviction and use the excuse that
the police were not trained yet as an
excuse to sustain a conviction.
