REDUCED | DUI (.069 BAC) State v. Mr. C. (DMC No. 10980) (Apache Junction City Court TR2012-01738): REDUCED to SPEEDING TICKET – Mr. C. was stopped near the intersection of Meridian Drive and Apache Trail in Apache Junction for allegedly speeding. He was subsequently administered various DUI tests and arrested. Although the officer alleged that Mr. C. performed horribly on field sobriety tests, and produced a .099 on a preliminary breath test, his blood alcohol reading came back as .069. We were able to show the Prosecutor the discrepancy between the low reading and the officer’s supposed observations, and they agreed to reduce the DUI to a simple Speeding ticket.
