What This Covers

A DWI case is built from a sequence of events, and each link in it can be examined: whether the traffic stop was lawful, whether the stop went beyond what the law permits, whether there was probable cause to arrest, whether field sobriety tests were administered and interpreted reliably, and whether breath or blood results can be challenged.

That sequence matters because the charge does not rest on a single piece of evidence. Each stage has procedural requirements attached to it, and whether those were met is a question of fact rather than opinion.

A DWI also runs on two tracks at once, criminal and administrative, which is why licence consequences can begin before a case is resolved.
