Casselberry, FL DUI Law Firms & Lawyers

If that is your only DUI Florida will require you to fulfill those obligations and prove to Colorado that you did them and Colorado will need to clear your license.  When they do, Florida should give you a license.  I would call your attorney in colorado to see how to do that. 

You can get a DUI in a parked car, especially when you pass out behind the wheel. You are an alcoholic sir. The first DUI did not communicate that. Now, you are here taking a nap (not passed out) for 90 minutes after drinking, and not being able to make in home. The officer found you in your subdivision with alcohol on your breath sleeping. Why did you not just drive home and sleep in your bed. Because you thought it would be a hoot to sleep in the vehicle, or you wanted to pretend you were homeless. Sir, you are an alcoholic.

Many folks wrongly but reasonably believe that a police officer must immediately inform an arrested person that he or she has the right to remain silent and other rights.  They are referring to "Miranda" rights, or warnings, which in fact must be provided to an individual by a police officer if two conditions exist: First, the individual must be "in custody."  That doesn't necessarily require handcuffing or the actual restraint of one's physical liberty.  A person is "in custody" if, given all of the attendant circumstances, a reasonable person in the given situation would believe that he or she is not free to leave the presence of the officer.  Secondly, the officer must intend to ask questions of the person who is "in custody." Standard procedure by police in DUI investigations is to not provide Miranda warnings until after "non-testimonial" aspects of the investigation have occurred.  Those would include roadside sobriety tasking and breath, blood or urine gathering.  That is because they know that Miranda warnings may cause an arrested person to not cooperate with that part of the investigation. If a person, without Miranda warnings being provided, at any time during any investigation, states to a police officer that he or she wants to consult with a lawyer, or is unwilling to answer any questions, there can be no interrogation.   So, during the investigation when you mentioned your desire to speak to an attorney, you were then invoking your Constitutional rights to an attorney and to silence.
