Fresno traffic defense attorney discusses new technology on the road

This is interesting. Starting in mid-September of this year, auto manufacturers will be allowed to use California roads for vehicle tests involving self-driving cars. After much deliberation, the DMV has come up with regulations on the testing of these vehicles. It's likely that at some point soon, they'll also issue rules to the general public.

Fresno Criminal Lawyer Comments on Fatal Fresno Drunk Driving Collision

It's been all over the news here in Fresno, and perhaps it's time a Fresno criminal lawyer talks about it and gives expert interpretation. It was a tragic event that deserves to be chronicled, in a situation that is difficult for everyone involved. In late January, around 6 P.M. there was a fatal crash. A man was driving drunk in his red, Chevy minivan, ran a stop sign in which he hit one motorist, continued around the turn and as he drove down McCall, he drifted into the lane of an oncoming car. In that car were four women. All four sisters who grew up in Del Rey. Three died as a result of the crash. The fourth, the driver, in critical condition and taken to the hospital.

Immigration Consequences for the Fresno DUI Defendant

Many DUI and criminal charges in general can result in terrible immigration consequences. Since Justin Bieber is a Canadian citizen on an entertainer's visa, his recent antics could end up resulting in his visa being revoked or denied if he were to reapply in the future.

Fresno Drunk Driving Charge Dismissed!!

On Monday, we won another DUI case in the Fresno County Superior Court. After filing a motion to suppress based upon an unlawful stop, the Honorable Judge Dennis Peterson granted our motion. The issue at hand was that the CHP Officer saw our client come to a "skidding stop." He also heard the tires screech prior to witnessing our client's vehicle come to a rest. His reason for pulling our client over was that our client had "abruptly braked" and there was no other traffic at the time.

A ticket for using Google Glass? Fresno traffic defense attorney looks at an interesting case

People take different forms of technology along with them when they drive, most typically cellphones and other mobile devices. While drivers should always take care to follow traffic laws and not let themselves get distracted on the road (as distraction could lead to fatal or otherwise serious collisions), they should be allowed to use these devices legally and responsibly.

Fresno DUI Attorney: Police Arrest 2 At Visalia Checkpoint

Two people were arrested on suspicion of DUI in late November during a "routine" DUI checkpoint in Visalia, police reported. These checkpoints are somewhat controversial. Although everyone is in favor of public safety, a good argument can be made that checkpoints like this intrude on the privacy and civil liberties of law-abiding people, and that those costs outweigh the small public-safety benefit they usually grant.
