What happens after arrest for drunk driving and involvement in an accident?
Hi,
My husband was arrested for drunk driving. He met with an accident. He was held at the police station for two days.
Now, they plan to transfer him to central jail for seven days, pending his blood report.
What happens next? I'm really worried.
Dear Questioner,
According to UAE laws, individuals found driving or attempting to drive a vehicle on public roads while under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or similar substances shall face imprisonment, a fine of no less than Dh 20,000, a one-year suspension of their driver's license from the date of the court's judgment, and potential deportation.
Dear Questioner,
After checking the blood alcohol level, then he is submitted before the Public prosecution.
Here, we can apply for the defense and request to reduce the penalties.

Dear Questioner,
I understand your concern regarding your husband's recent situation, and I'm here to provide you with guidance and support during this challenging time.
First and foremost, it's essential to remain calm and focus on understanding the legal process ahead. Given the circumstances you've described, it seems that your husband is facing serious charges related to drunk driving and an accident.
The fact that he has been detained for two days and is now awaiting his blood report indicates that the authorities are taking this matter seriously. In Dubai, drunk driving is a grave offense with potentially severe consequences.
The next steps in the legal process will largely depend on the findings of the blood report and the specific details of the accident.
Once the report is available, it will be reviewed by the authorities to determine the level of alcohol in your husband's system at the time of the incident.
Based on the outcome of the investigation and the severity of the offense, your husband may face further legal proceedings, including potential charges and penalties.
These could range from fines and license suspension to imprisonment, especially if the accident resulted in injuries or fatalities.

It's crucial to engage the services of an experienced attorney who can navigate the complexities of the legal system and advocate for the best possible outcome.
