rgia drivers claim they were too drunk to consent to DUI tests 6:00 p.m. Oct. 29 by Jodie Fleischer / Channel 2 Action News A Georgia Supreme Court ruling earlier this year has created a legal trick by which drunk drivers are getting key evidence against them thrown out, by arguing they were too drunk.

Sounds like they admit it. I don't see the problem.

Well for one it eliminates the stiffer penalties that come with higher bac numbers.

Jesus, as far as a defense goes, that's pretty fricking brilliant.

Sounds like they admit they were drunk, but not over the legal limit. If they get the charges tossed and it pisses the MADD Gestapo off, even better.

makes sense

I feel this is where the word "too" comes in. Not only are you drunk, which by definition means you are intoxicated to the point where you are impaired both mentally and physically, but you are admitting to the fact that you were too drunk to understand that a bac test could cause consequences should you fail.
I'm sorry but I have no respect for those who knowingly drink to the point of being "too drunk" and put other drivers lives in danger.

Everyone thinks its incredible. I would have to agree. Brilliant lawyer.
