Under the Georgia DUI laws, you can be arrested for DUI even if your blood alcohol content (BAC) is under 0.08%, the legal limit. You may be charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, less safe.
If a police offer stops you for a traffic violation (i.e. swerving in and out of your lane), and during the stop he notices that you may be impaired (slurred speech, red eyes), he will most likely ask you to take a breath test.
If the portable breath test shows your BAC to be under the legal limit, but the police officer believes that your ability to drive is impaired by the amount of alcohol in your system, the officer can arrest you and charge you with a less safe DUI.
If you have been charged with any a less safe DUI, you must act quickly! From the moment you are arrested, the government begins working on your case. If you hesitate to take action, you are wasting valuable time—time that your criminal defense attorney could be using to prepare your case.
