Federal OUI In Massachusetts Lawyers Operating Influence License Suspended

If you have been charged with OUI which took place on a road owned by the Federal government, National Park Service land, place on federally owned property, including military bases or other government-owned lands or roads, such as the GW Parkway and the Pentagon parking lot then you will be prosecuted in a Federal court.

Under 36 CFR 4.23 Operating under the influence of alcohol or drugs

"(a) Operating or being in actual physical control of a motor vehicle is prohibited while:

(1) Under the influence of alcohol, or a drug, or drugs, or any combination thereof, to a degree that renders the operator incapable of safe operation; or

(2) The alcohol concentration in the operator's blood or breath is 0.08 grams or more of alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood or 0.08 grams or more of alcohol per 210 liters of breath. Provided however, that if State law that applies to operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol establishes more restrictive limits of alcohol concentration in the operator's blood or breath, those limits supersede the limits specified in this paragraph."

Holdings:

The Federal Court made the following holding:

  • It is clear that an individual may be compelled to take a chemical test so long as there are reasonable grounds to believe that the person was driving a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Of course, unreasonable physical violence in administering the test would likely not be sanctioned and would likely invalidate the test.


  •  An operator of a commercial vehicle is deemed to be driving under the influence of alcohol if the individual's blood alcohol concentration level is at or above .04 percent.
