Gwinnett County DUI Video Evidence

As more and more Gwinnett County patrol cars become equipped with video and audio recording devices, DUI defense lawyers have another way of gathering evidence that can be beneficial to their client’s cases. These videos record everything from your driving and initial stop to the DUI arrest, and, if it is favorable to your defense, the videotape evidence can make a strong impact on your case.

Gwinnett County DUI video evidence can be used by your attorney when developing a defense strategy. For example, the officer must have probable cause to pull you over. This may include disobeying traffic signals or driving erratically. If your lawyer reviews the video evidence and finds that there was no probable cause for your traffic stop, there is a chance any evidence the officer collected may be thrown out.

The video may also show your field sobriety tests. These tests are extremely subjective, and it is up to the (potentially biased) officer to determine the score. If your lawyer finds that the officer gave incorrect instructions or administered the test on an improper surface, the results of the test may be suppressed. Your lawyer may also find that you performed the tests correctly, and that the officer scored your test unfairly.

Your lawyer may also launch his own investigation to find other recordings from the night of your arrest. By reviewing traffic camera videos and private surveillance footage, your lawyer may find other facts that will help your defense. However, you must act quickly so your lawyer can issue a subpoena for the videos before they are lost or erased.
