Criminal defense attorney John Guidry discusses three DUI myths. First, the prosecutor doesn’t need to prove that you’re drunk. The prosecutor only has to prove that you were impaired while driving. Second, the prosecutor doesn’t have to prove that you were even driving the car. They only have to prove that you were in actual physical control, like having the keys while sleeping in your car. Last, you can get a DUI simply by riding a bicycle on the street while intoxicated. Not a motorized bike, but a regular bike. Unfortunately, the laws can seem unfair and confusing.
