What is Driving Whilst Unfit?

Motorists are accused of driving whilst unfit if it is believed their ability to drive at the time has been impaired by drugs or alcohol. However, the main difference between this and drink driving or being drunk in charge is that this will have been ascertained without the use of a sample of breath for analysis.

The police at the scene will always ask to take a specimen, but may decide to charge the motorist if they are physically unable to provide it, due to being under the influence. They may also use erratic driving as evidence for impairment.

However, there is a range of arguments and challenges that the representing solicitors can use when building a defence, of which our specialist lawyers have in-depth knowledge.  By seeking the advice of expert motoring offence solicitors, the chances of your punishments being reduced will be greatly improved.
