Legal Answers
- Q. DWI and DUI? Are they the same.
- A: Yes, they are the same. Different jurisdictions just have slightly different names for the same thing. I've even seen them call OUI or OMVI.
- Q. Can you be arrested weeks after refusing any testing for Dui in Kansas?
- A: Yes, it is pretty common for the charges to come later when the driver has gone to the hospital. Sometimes blood or urine is obtained at the hospital and sent to the lab for testing. In that case it can be months before the case is charged. Even if there is no blood or urine the officers can take time to complete their investigation and file charges later.
- Q. What is an 'Ext Std Check'? It was listed at .075
- A: The Intoxilyzer 9000 breath test machine has a gas canister attached to it. The gas in the canister is certified to test at .08. The external standard check is when the machine tests the gas to attempt to make sure the machine is working properly. If it tests the gas anywhere from .075 to .085 that is considered to be close enough for government work. The subject test on the same sheet is your boyfriend's test.
