Every week, hundreds of drivers in Pennsylvania are pulled over for suspicion of drunk driving. Regardless of guilt, most drivers are unprepared for this stop. This gives the police an unfair advantage when subjecting already nervous drivers to a battery of tests and the harshest of penalties.
There are many things you should know about a DUI stop. The Palkovitz Law Office Traffic Law Center can explain:

Pennsylvania law mandates jail time and driver’s license suspension for a drunken driving conviction. There is, however, an alternative available to certain people, including first-time offenders. The ARD (Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition) Program is available for first-time offenders of non-violent crimes, especially misdemeanor cases.
In ARD, an individual can have his or her case dismissed and record erased after probation has been served. At the Palkovitz Law Office Traffic Law Center, we have an excellent record of winning ARD for our clients. For second and third offenses, house arrest is possible to allow you to stay at home and to go to work instead of going to jail.
