10 Things Every Hershey, Hummelstown, and Derry Township Resident Should Know About First-Time DUIs!

Hey there, fellow Hershey, Hummelstown, and Derry Township neighbors! I wanted to chat about something a little less sweet than our usual Hershey’s chocolates and Hersheypark rides: DUIs. If you, a friend, or a loved one is dealing with a first-time DUI, there’s some crucial info you need to know. So, let’s get to it.

  1. DUI Isn’t Only About Booze: When we hear DUI, our minds usually jump to alcohol. But a DUI charge can come from driving under the influence of other substances like marijuana, prescription drugs, or illegal drugs. Be aware!

 

  1. It’s Not the End of the World: It feels like it, but trust me, it’s not. Yes, a DUI is a serious charge, but with the right legal help, it can be managed.

 

  1. You Have Rights: Even when charged with a DUI, you have rights. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

 

  1. You Need Legal Representation: This isn’t an episode of Law & Order. You need a real-life attorney who specializes in DUI cases. It can make a world of difference.

 

  1. Not All Attorneys Are Created Equal: Some attorneys specialize in DUI cases. They know the ins, outs, ups, downs, and sideways of DUI law. Seek them out.

 

  1. Blood Results Aren’t Always Right: Surprised? Blood results can give false readings. An experienced attorney knows how to challenge their accuracy.

 

  1. First-Time DUIs Are Not Always Open-and-Shut Cases: Every case is unique. Don’t assume the worst.

 

  1. You Might Not Lose Your License: With a good attorney on your side, there might be ways to keep your driving privileges.

 

  1. DUI Laws Vary: What’s true for a DUI in Maryland might not be true in Hershey, Hummelstown, or Derry Township. You need someone who knows our local laws.

 

  1. You Are Not Alone: If you’re feeling scared, confused, or just plain overwhelmed, remember there are people who can and want to help.
