How do you beat a DUI in court?  I've never had one or been on a jury in a DUI trial, although my father was on a jury for a DUI trial.  My dad was truly conservative and in his eyes, there was very little you could do that was worse than drinking and driving, but he said he was pretty uncertain as to the guilt of the accused.

I've never had one and don't plan to but an attorney fried who makes his living partly defeating this charge tells me the first thing is to challenge the accuracy of the breathalyzer.  He also says, FWIW, to always refuse a field sobriety test, demand to speak to an attorney, etc.  the point is to delay the breathalyzer or blood test long enough for you blood alcohol level to drop below the legal limit.  He quickly adds that the magic word for beating a DUI is "taxi."
