What Is an OUI in Massachusetts?

The state’s OUI law, Mass. General Laws c.90 § 24, prohibits driving while under the influence of an intoxicating substance, including alcohol, illicit drugs and prescription drugs that cause impairment. The state’s legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit is 0.08 percent, but it does not take an illegal BAC to get arrested for drunk driving. You can be charged with this offense if a police officer believes you to be impaired.

How to Fight an OUI Charge in Carlisle

If you get arrested for allegedly operating under the influence in Carlisle, many potential defense options could be available. Your customized defense strategy at Spring & Spring may involve any of the following arguments:

  • Improper traffic stop (lack of probable cause)

  • Improperly calibrated, maintained or operated breathalyzer device
  • Medical conditions that explain a failed field sobriety test
  • Procedural errors or constitutional rights violations
