Happy Thanksgiving! Be Safe, Drive Safe, Know Your Rights, and Call Sam If You Get in Trouble!

Happy Thanksgiving! The holiday season has arrived. The night before Thanksgiving is one of the biggest bar nights of the year & marks the beginning of the holiday party season. Law enforcement knows that drunk driving increases around the holidays, which means that more police vehicles are patrolling the roads on the lookout for suspected drunk and unsafe drivers.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS! If you get pulled over for drunk driving, you have the right to remain silent. Too often, the police obtain the best evidence against you from, unfortunately, YOU! While you are obligated to give the officer your license, registration, and insurance, YOU ARE UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT A POLICE OFFICER ASKS YOU, especially the classic “how much have you had to drink?” YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO SAY “I WANT A LAWYER” OR “I’M NOT ANSWERING ANYTHING WITHOUT TALKING TO A LAWYER.”

Drunk driving is perhaps the most common criminal offense but the consequences can be severe. If you do not know your rights it is easy to get taken advantage of by police officers and worsen your situation. If you have been arrested or charged with drunk driving, CALL THE LAW OFFICE OF SAMUEL LASSER at 415.373.4000 to seek immediate legal assistance.

You Have The Right To Remain Silent – So Be Quiet!

I often ask clients, “did you make a statement to the police?” The response is often “no” or “not really.” Sometimes clients explain that they told the police something like “I wasn’t there” or “I have no idea what you are talking about” or “I bought this phone from somebody.” ANYTHING YOU SAY TO THE POLICE IS CONSIDERED A STATEMENT, no matter how many or how few words you use. Even the simplest response to any police questioning is a statement that could damage your case and be used against you in court.

Being stopped by and questioned by the police can be a very uncomfortable and intimidating situation. People often feel pressured to talk to police officers because they are figures of authority who wear uniforms and badges and carry guns. Police officers routinely tell people that it is in their best interest to “tell the truth.” NOT SO. Police officers and other law enforcement personnel are mostly interested in catching suspects and solving crimes.

YOUR RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT (UNDER THE 5TH AMENDMENT TO THE U.S. CONSTITUTION) APPLIES TO YOU ALL DAY, EVERY DAY; NO MATTER IF YOU ARE IN COURT, OUT OF COURT, IN JAIL, ON THE STREET, IN YOUR HOME, IN YOUR CAR, OR IN SOMEBODY ELSE’S CAR. YOU HAVE AN ABSOLUTE RIGHT TO REFUSE TO ANSWER QUESTIONS ASKED OF YOU BY ANY LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER!!
