Defending Against Impaired Driving Charges

Impaired Driving, known as Driving Under the Influence (DUI) or Driving While Intoxicated (DWI), encompasses various alcohol-related driving offences in Canada. At Accord Attorneys & Solicitors, we understand the complexity of impaired driving charges and offer dedicated legal support to individuals facing such allegations in Regina, Saskatchewan.
Impaired Driving charges include driving over the legal limit (Over 80 or Over .08), refusal or failure to provide a breath sample, and care and control while impaired. In cases where serious injuries or fatalities occur, charges can be elevated to Impaired Driving Causing Bodily Harm or Impaired Driving Causing Death.
To secure an impaired driving conviction, the prosecution must demonstrate that the accused had control of a motor vehicle, their ability to operate it was impaired by alcohol or drugs, and this impairment led to reduced driving capability. Judges consider various evidence, including the individual's eyes, the smell of alcohol on their breath, driving pattern, speech, balance, and hand/eye coordination.

In typical cases, the police may not impose strict release conditions for a first-time impaired driving charge. However, Accord Attorneys & Solicitors is prepared to defend your case vigorously. We review each case thoroughly, searching for defences and potential breaches of constitutional rights that may lead to dismissal. Our experienced team ensures your rights are protected and explores every avenue to secure the best possible outcome.
