Following are some of the most popular DUI defenses in Florida:
The margin of error defense—If the police officer measured your BAC at 0.82%, you could argue that the margin of error for the breathalyzer test was so large that a reading of 0.82% is not enough to establish that you were legally intoxicated. In any case, that might be enough to secure a favorable plea bargain. The “rising BAC” defense—If you drank a lot immediately before you were pulled over, and the police officer measured your BAC a few minutes later, it could be that you were drunker at the time you took the test than you were behind the wheel. Indeed, backwards extrapolation might prove that you were not legally drunk at the time you were pulled over. Illegal traffic stop—The police officer had no probable cause to pull you over in the first place. The officer might have been racially profiling you, or they might have pulled you over based on a defective arrest warrant, etc. Lack of a Sufficient Observation Period -- In Florida, law enforcement officers are required to observe DUI suspects for a 20-minute period before giving them a breath test. The purpose of this observation period is to ensure that the DUI suspect does not regurgitate anything from their stomach or put anything into their mouth that could contaminate the test.  Many times, law enforcement officers fail to comply with this requirement.  When they do, that failure can provide a basis to have a breath sample excluded from evidence.
