Wahneta, FL DUI Law Firms & Lawyers

You should have a lawyer check to make sure that you have no outstanding warrant that you are unaware of and if that is clean, forget about it unless you hear otherwise. You should have a lawyer check on the warrant instead of trying to do it yourself since you do not want to inadvertently initiate something that wouldn't otherwise happen. Also, you should make sure that the RMV and the Post Office have your correct mailing address. It is our legal obligation to make sure the RMV has current address and you want the post office to be accurate to make sure you don't miss a mailing. If there are no outstanding warrants, then forget and see what, if anything, happens.

You certainly can get a DUI on a bicycle in Florida. The public policy behind this law is that you may hurt yourself or cause a traffic accident by riding your bicycle while impaired.  The facts you have mentioned pertain to the basis for the traffic stop and not whether you were impaired. A police officer does not have to have probable cause to make a traffic stop, only a reasonable belief that you violated a traffic law. Once he is in contact with you if he has reason to believe you are impaired, such as smelling alcohol, then he has probable cause to begin a dui investigation.
