My kid was arrested on a DUI charge and the States Attorney dropped the charge against him.
The police acted in an illegal manner in there haste to arrest him.

With all due respect, you, sir, are an idiot. Hopefully the "arrest" scared your son from ever getting into a car after drinking. You should thank the officer. Imagine if your son had hit, maybe killed someone. His life would be ruined.

IMHO, anyone stopped for the first time for DUI..assuming there was no accident, injury, or property damage involved. The cop observes the individual driving erratically, makes the stop, does the breathalyzer..the person should have their license suspended for 30 days...this makes them realize the consequences..and have to attend the safety courses like she did. Do trial, no points, no conviction..no record that affects insurance. One free pass..hopefully the lesson is learned. This way people won't try to beat the ticket..instead they'll hopefully address the problem of their behavior.

You should say a little prayer of thanks every day for the cop that stopped your son..
