Exhibiting traditional indicia (i.e. indicators) of impairment are at the centre of strictly impaired driving prosecutions.

The most prevalent indicators are:

1. the smell of alcohol

2. slurred speech

3. poor balance

4. bad driving

These are confusing cases because of the abundance of impaired driving definitions in the criminal code.

The wide-ranging umbrella of these types of DUI charges means there are several facets involved in each individual case. You should never, under any circumstance, plead guilty. This way, you won’t limit your options.

Section 253 (1)(b) of the Criminal Code dictates that you’re prohibited to drive with over 80mgs in 100mls of blood, by law. There must be two separate breath samples taken, at least 15 minutes apart at the police stations. The lower of the two must show an alcohol concentration over 80mgs.

The Crown struggles to prove Over 80 charges, making it essential to hire an attorney if you’re facing such a charge.

In order for the Crown to successfully convict you for ‘refusing or failing to comply with a breath demand’, they have to prove a driver’s said refusal/failure was ‘final and equivocal’.
A couple of common examples of this infraction are simply saying ‘no’ or pretending to blow in the contraption. The court might be able to prove without a doubt that you did this, but even then, you have options such as ‘having a reasonable excuse’. These options have led to many successful defences in the past.

I am always very careful and cautious about drinking with my friends when I know I have to drive home. Unfortunately, a few months ago, I chose to just have a small amount of drinks. I was very responsible and knew my limits. I was feeling well and chose to drive home. It was then that the police pulled me over and had me take a breathalyzer test. I was being charged with a DUI and I was very scared since this is my first encounter with the law. I called one of my trusted friends and they referred me to Jonathan Lapid. He set up a time to meet with me and prepare a plan for how he would help me in my legal troubles. After working the case, Jonathan had the charges dropped based on a constitutional error made by the prosecution. Thank you for your help Jonathan!read more

Jonathan simply saved me and my career. Do not get me wrong, I understand that DUI is a serious offence and you can easily impact others well-being by neglecting "don't drink and drive rule" but my job requires me to drink on the meetings to sign the client. That's how I make my living. I was charged with over 80 and Jonathan made it possible for me not to lose my licence. Yes, it was not the cheapest offer on the market, but I'd rather trust my case to the professional with 25+ years of experience then will fight for a couple of hundreds in savings.

Do You Have Questions Regarding a DUI or DWI? Have no idea whether you should hire a DUI lawyer in Vaughan?

What Follows When A Person Receives A Charge from the Police in Terms of The Law?

As part of the stringent procedure for prosecution for the grave offence of driving under the influence of alcohol, law enforcement officers may issue an undertaking to the defendant to appear, which may include, among other things, a requirement to undergo fingerprinting and photographing within a specified period. If the accused fails to comply with this requirement, this may lead to the filing of new criminal charges.

Documents that are provided to the defendant:

 

  • an administrative license suspension for 90 days
  • a breathalyzer certificate
  • a computer printout of the intoxilyzer readings

DUI is a Criminal Offence

There is No Time to Waste if You Are Charged With a DUI

  • If a person has previously been convicted of a similar offence involving driving under the influence of alcohol, the accused is given notice of the enhanced penalty. The filing of such a notice allows the Crown to rely on the accused’s previous convictions in determining the amount of the mandatory minimum jail term and the length of the driving prohibition.

More than 25 Years of Experience

No more caution throws to the wind. The criminal defense process is complex and significantly stressful. Jonathan Lapid is committed to providing you with support and assistance so that you do not feel alone in this struggle.

What are the consequences for driving under the influence of cannabis?

Despite the legalization of cannabis in Canada, it is illegal to drive a vehicle after using cannabis.
Cannabis use is established through a blood or urine test that determines the amount of THC in the body.
If more than 2 nanograms of THC per milliliter of blood is found in the body, there is a violation of the law. If it exceeds 5 nanograms of THC per milliliter of blood, more severe penalties are likely.

What factors can affect the court's decision when sentencing for a DUI?

If a court finds you guilty of driving under the influence of alcohol, the outcome of the case will depend on the circumstances of the offense and whether you have a criminal record. Usually, if a person does not have a criminal record and has not caused harm to life or health, they will not be sent to prison. However, there are circumstances in which such a decision may be made.

What can happen if a breathalyzer shows the presence of alcohol in the blood and the person tested disagrees with the results and claims he or she did not drink alcohol?

Even if you exceed the statutory limit or refuse to provide a sample, it is possible to make appropriate statutory or legislative submissions. These things are often considered “technicalities” in society, but in a functioning democracy, civil liberties are important. What may seem insignificant to a layperson may result in an acquittal (meaning you win your case). This is because the state, usually through the police force, has a duty to protect your constitutional rights. If you fail to fulfill this duty, the state loses the right to a conviction.

Can contacting an attorney increase the chances of a successful outcome in a DUI case?

Some people mistakenly believe that they can handle a DUI case on their own. However, this can lead to problems because DUI law is a complex area of law that not everyone is versed in.
If you believe that you have evidence that can help your case, it is recommended that you contact a DUI attorney in Vaughan.
Attorney Jonathan Lapid is an experienced professional who can protect your interests in court or publicly if necessary. His clients always come first, and with him, you will have a much better chance of success than if you act alone or go to another attorney, especially when it comes to public cases.

Can you enter the United States, if you are charged with a DUI in Canada?

Unfortunately, the answer to this question can vary from situation to situation, and it is always wise to consult with an attorney before attempting to cross the U.S. border with any type of criminal record.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers have considerable discretion to deny people entry into the United States. Therefore, the best way to avoid this situation is to win your DUI case from the start.

How long will I go without a license if I receive a DUI?

If you are a first time offender, you may have your license suspended for up to 1 year. If you’re a second time offender, your license may be suspended for 1 to 5 years. If you’re a third time offender, you’re looking at a virtually certain lifetime suspension. In order to get your license back sooner than originally sentenced, you’ll need to partake in various educational courses in regards to driving. You may have to retake your drivers examine (by redoing the graduated G license process), however, the wait times in between each phase will likely be reduced drastically. Are you facing a license suspension? Have you received a DUI? Hire a good drunk driving lawyer in Brampton. You don’t know which one? Perhaps Jonathan Lapid can help you out! Jonathan is a top DUI lawyer who’ll defend your interests and fight for your right to drive. Everyone deserves a second chance. Johnathan would fight for you even if your chances are low.

Can a DUI conviction lead to a revocation of immigration status?

Following changes that came into effect on December 18, 2021, a conviction for driving under the influence of alcohol may affect the immigration status of non-Canadians.
For example, if a person has lived in Canada as a permanent resident for a long time but has not applied for citizenship, a conviction may affect their immigration status. This also applies if the person is not facing a custodial sentence.
In such a situation, it is advisable to consult a professional, such as Alan Pierce, to assess the possible consequences and develop a defense strategy. Pleading guilty without first assessing the risks to immigration status/deportation may lead to undesirable results.
