Tampa DUI Checkpoints and How they Operate

As traffic slowly passes by, cars are selected at specific intervals and routed into the checkpoint. The driver is greeted, given some information about the operation and allowed to leave. However, should an impaired driver be encountered, further investigation is conducted which would result in the driver's arrest if he or she is found to be impaired.

"What is the Legal Limit?

In reality, there is no legal limit. In Florida, a person can be arrested and convicted of DUI after consuming any amount of alcohol.

So what does a Blood-Alcohol Level of .08 mean?

The term '.08 BAC' is commonly referred to as the legal limit, but this is not accurate. According to Florida Law, .08 BAC is the presumptive level of impairment. In other words, if you have consumed enough alcohol to reach a .08 BAC, you are automatically considered impaired.

What if I'm below .08 BAC?

You can still be convicted of DUI even if you are under .08 BAC. If your driving ability is proven to be impaired you will likely be convicted of DUI."
