If I Was Not Read My Miranda Rights, Can I Still Be Charged With Driving Under the Influence?
Yes. Miranda warnings are not required until an individual has already been arrested and is about to face police questioning. Most DUI cases hinge on high BAC test results and the arresting officer’s observations rather than the driver’s answers to questions. DUI cases often take place without the driver being Mirandized. However, should the un-Mirandized driver say something incriminating, he or she can file a motion to suppress its use as evidence.
