DWI Arrests Of Women Drivers Are On The Upswing

March 29, 2017 by Sheridan & Dulas, P.A.

Government statistics show that men are arrested for driving while impaired far more often than women. However, recent statistics show that women are closing the gap on DWI arrests.

Lawmakers Attempting To Prevent Interlock Location Tracking

December 20, 2016 by Sheridan & Dulas, P.A.

If you’re familiar with DWI cases in Minnesota, you’ve probably heard of an ignition interlock system.

Can You Believe a Breathalyzer?

November 5, 2015 by Sheridan & Dulas, P.A.

If you have been charged with a DWI in Minnesota, you may have had your level of intoxication determined by a breath testing device.

A DWI Can Cost You Your Job

October 23, 2015 by Sheridan & Dulas, P.A.

A DWI in Minnesota comes with many costs. Even if a first time conviction does not carry a jail sentence, a DWI conviction is likely to be far more inconvenient that a speeding ticket or some other moving violations.   If the DWI charge is merely a traffic stop, and does not involve a crash… Read More

Do You Have a Warrant for That Blood Test, Officer?

October 16, 2015 by Sheridan & Dulas, P.A.

Is Retrograde Extrapolation Junk Science?

October 7, 2015 by Sheridan & Dulas, P.A.

Judges are supposed to be rigorous in determining the validity of evidence allowed in their courtrooms. Especially when it comes to scientific evidence, which most laypersons on a jury and the majority of judges are ill equipped to evaluate. There are various standards, but ideally, the process should be accepted science, that is well understood… Read More

Constant Contact May Help Prevent Repeat DWIs

October 2, 2015 by Sheridan & Dulas, P.A.

At one time, in the U.S., prevention of intoxicated drivers was not much of a priority. In the days of metal dashboards, no crumple zones, no seat belts and no air bags, drivers often had “one for the road.” Sadly, that one might have been their last one. By the 1980s, organizations such as Mothers… Read More

DWI Court Seem to Be a Better Choice for Minnesota

September 22, 2015 by Sheridan & Dulas, P.A.

A news report finds that Minnesota has almost 1,500 drivers who have been convicted of a DWI six or more times. More than 100 currently have at least 10 DWI convictions and a few have almost 20. Some have probably already rushed to write their legislator to “do something” about this. But what should be… Read More
