DUI Arrests Made in Colorado State Patrol CAPITOL STEPS LINED WITH SHOES OF COLORADO LIVES LOST Date released: 1/25/2006 Denver, January 24, 2005 – 282 pairs of shoes lined the West Steps of the State Capitol representing the Colorado lives lost in traffic crashes as a result of being unrestrained in 2004. A mangled car from a young survivor wearing his seat belt is a vivid reminder of how fragile life is. In 2004, 502 drivers and passengers died in traffic crashes and 282 (56 percent) were not using safety belts—twenty-nine of those passengers were children under the age of 16 and 55 percent were riding completely unrestrained. In conjunction with the display of the 282 pairs of shoes, the Colorado Safety Belt Coalition hosted a press conference to formally begin their campaign in support of House Bill 1125 calling for standard safety belt legislation. House Bill 1125, sponsored by Representative Fran Coleman and Senator Peter Groff, was introduced to the legislature on January 17th, 2006. “Traffic-related injuries are the leading cause of death for children and young adults, ages 1-33 and standard safety belt enforcement would help save more than half of those lives,” said Representative Coleman. “States with standard enforcement see a dramatic drop in traffic fatalities when passing this legislation and I believe that this bill is essential to saving the lives of Colorado families.” Colonel Mark V. Trostel, Chief of the Colorado State Patrol emceed the event and spoke to Colorado State Patrol’s support of House Bill 1125 and the Colorado Safety Belt Coalition. "The Colorado State Patrol (CSP) is strongly in favor of standardizing Colorado's seat belt laws," said Colonel Mark Trostel, Chief of the CSP. "We see all too many disabling injuries and deaths that occur on our highways as a result of drivers and their passengers not wearing a seat belt. In a motor vehicle crash your chances for survival are greater if you and your passengers are wearing a seat belt, and I base that on what I've personally seen at the site of far too many serious crashes." Pam Sallee and Wayne Burton, parents of the late Brittney Hudson, a 17 year-old high school junior, who was killed in a traffic crash as a result of being unrestrained on November 23, 2005 shared their story and voiced their support for standard safety belt enforcement. “As parents, we feel that Brittney would be here with us today had she been wearing her safety belt. Innocent lives with promising futures will continue to be ejected out car windows unless we enact a standard safety belt enforcement law. Please buckle-up, it may save your life.” Alexa Gromko, from AAA Colorado, a leading organization in the Colorado Safety Belt Coalition, emphasized AAA Colorado’s dedication to enacting a standard safety belt enforcement law and educating citizens on the importance of safety belts. "AAA Colorado is always a leader and advocate for the safety and security of all travelers, said Gromko. “For AAA, this issue boils down to one solid truth: seat belt usage saves lives. When a seat belt law is standard, more people buckle up. When parents buckle up, they're more likely to buckle up their children. And when that happens, fewer people will die in traffic crashes.” The high percentage of deaths and injuries that result from not wearing a seatbelt also impacts what we pay for auto insurance. The estimated economic cost of non-seatbelt use in U.S. motor vehicle crashes is $20 billion. “Of course the highest price we pay for car crashes is in the loss of lives,” says Carole Walker, Executive Director of the Rocky Mountain Insurance Information Association. “But if we can help people survive and reduce their treatment costs, those savings are passed on to all of us through our insurance premiums.” The Colorado Safety Belt Coalition’s campaign will extend throughout the state and will educate Colorado citizens on the importance of safety belt use in order to save lives and prevent injuries. Over 60 local government, health care, law enforcement, non-profit, and business organizations are part of the Coalition including AAA Colorado, the Colorado State Patrol and the Rocky Mountain Insurance Information Agency. Together, these organizations hope to help protect the lives of Colorado citizens through the passage of standard safety belt enforcement. Traffic-related injuries are the leading cause of death for children and young adults ages 1-33, and research from the National Traffic Safety Administration shows that safety belts could save almost 50% of the lives lost each year. The Colorado Safety Belt Coalition’s members are committed to working for standard safety belt enforcement in order to save the lives of Colorado’s citizens. About the Colorado Safety Belt Coalition The Colorado Safety Belt Coalition is an alliance of law enforcement agencies, local businesses, government organizations and non-profit groups working to increase safety belt usage awareness through education and legislation. The goal of the Coalition is to work to reduce the number of injuries, deaths and the costs associated with automobile accidents and unbelted automobile drivers and passengers.

Download File Teen Seat Belt Use Stuck at 70 Percent Statewide - Teen traffic deaths are down in 2005 yet more than 60 percent of teen victims did not use seat belts. Date released: 1/25/2006 Seat belt use by drivers and their front seat passengers ages 16 to 20 in Colorado has remained at about 70 percent statewide for the second year in a row, reports the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT). Although teen traffic deaths decreased 20 percent on Colorado highways in 2005, 74 teens died and more than 60 percent of the young victims did not use seat belts according to preliminary statistics. “While changes to the Graduated Driver Licensing law appear to be working, the seat belt and fatality reports are grim reminders of the challenges ahead,” said Tom Norton, CDOT’s Executive Director. “We must see significant improvement in seat belt use if we hope to have more teens survive traffic crashes.” The greatest reductions in teen deaths last year were seen as the number of 16 and 17-year-old victims decreased by more than half. In 2005, 21 drivers and passengers ages 16 to 17 died. This compares to 46 similar deaths in 2004. Changes to Colorado’s Graduated Driver Licensing (GDL) law placed new passenger and nighttime driving restrictions on teen drivers under age 18. The new GDL provisions took effect on July 1, 2005. Last year, 74 drivers and passengers ages 16 to 20 died in traffic crashes in Colorado, compared to 93 such deaths in 2004. Of the 74 victims, 45 (61 percent) were not buckled up and 27 of them were partially or totally ejected from their vehicles. The 2005 teen seat belt use rate is 70.4 percent and the rate in 2004 was 70.9 percent. The findings are from the second annual teen observational seat belt use survey conducted by Colorado State University (CSU) for CDOT. The teen seat belt study also found a wide range of usage rates in the counties surveyed. The lowest usage rates were found in Logan, Gunnison, Montrose and Moffat Counties at 40.5, 49.7, 55.5 and 57.8 percent, respectively. Four counties had seat belt use rates at 80 percent or higher: Douglas at 80.6 percent; El Paso at 81.9 percent; Routt at 82.5 percent and Boulder at 90 percent. Observers recorded belt use for teens by the vehicle driven. Teens are most likely to buckle up in vans and SUV’s (sport utility vehicles) at 78.2 and 74.7 percent, respectively. Teen seat belt use in passenger cars is 70.5 percent and is lowest in pick up trucks at 57 percent. Seat belt use is also estimated by regions in the state. The Front Range usage rate for teens is 72.9 percent. In Eastern Colorado teens use seat belts at 70.8 percent, while in Western Colorado the usage rate drops to 60.9 percent. The teen statewide observational seat belt survey took place from September 12-23, 2005, and the observers were retired Colorado State Patrol troopers. The survey included 550 observations at 214 sites located at high schools, community colleges, state colleges and universities. The sites were either road intersections or parking lots. Drivers and front seat passengers were observed for seat belt use. CSU also conducts CDOT’s adult statewide observational seat belt use survey. Adult seat belt use in Colorado is 79.2 percent.(Editors note: For a list of teen seat belt use by counties surveyed, teen fatalities by county and a fact sheet on teen traffic deaths in Colorado, go to www.dot.state.co.us/trafficsafety and choose Media Room.)

Breathalyzers analyze the alcohol Breathalyzer daniel gray's geekbooks.com - from the swamps of joisey Breathalyzer As I was flipping through the dial last night, I happened to tune into the Larry King show. Tracey Gold, the actress--best known for her role as Carol Seaver on the ABC sitcom Growing Pains --was Larry's guest. Tracey shared the frightening story of how she rolled her Yukon after drinking two glasses of wine at a private party. Why the heck am I babbling about this? Because it could have easily been preventable through the use of technology, that's why... As a result, Tracey was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI). She has since pled guilty to a felony drunken driving charge. Sentencing is slated for late March. The charge carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison. While Tracey's taken full responsibility for the incident in which her oldest son fractured his collarbone and husband fractured his neck, one point is clear. It was preventable. If Tracey had been aware that she was over the legal limit for alcohol, she would have not gotten behind the wheel of the hulking SUV. Tracey did not know her driving would be impaired. She didn't think that two glasses of wine would do it. A simple breathalyzer test would have brought that to light. Breathalyzers analyze the alcohol content of exhaled air. This correlates directly to the alcohol level in the blood stream. Once your blood alcohol content reaches 0.08 grams of alcohol per 100 ml of blood, you are considered to be under the influence (in most states). A few months ago, I suggested that perhaps every fast food joint should have a defibrillator . Why can't every commercial establishment that serves liquor and beer offer a free breathalyzer test before a patron leaves the premises? Why don't hosts pick up breathalyzers at the liquor store with their party supplies? (There are fancy corkscrews that are more expensive, for Pete's sake.) Oh sure, some bars have coin-operated breathalyzers ... but why should patrons have to pay? Why can't they be complimentary, along with the popcorn and pretzels on the bar, and the toothpicks and breath mints at the cash register? Consumer grade breathalyzers start at well under $100. While they might not be as accurate as the professional models used by law enforcement officers (which can run over $500), the inexpensive breathalyzers offer a clue to those who might otherwise be clueless.

Proposals - Recent DWI Decisions - DWI Seminars - Conferences - Organizations DWI In General - DWI Links - Dealing with DWI - Do you have a problem? - Getting help Driving While Intoxicated ( DWI ) ...is a serious offense in the State of New Jersey. Besides mandatory fines, surcharges and possible jail, the NJ Court must impose mandatory drivers license suspensions, with no exceptions, even for people who must drive to work. The purpose of this site is to provide access to legal representation if you have been charged with DWI in New Jersey. While other attorneys claim they "specialize" in defending NJ drivers charged with Driving While Intoxicated, my practice is limited to DWI defense and defense of related motor vehicle violations. After twenty nine years of defending New Jersey drivers charged with DWI, it is clear that you can not win a DWI case, unless you make every effort to do so. We require that the State of New Jersey prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, prove that the breath test was administered properly, that the breath test machine was properly operating, that , that the police had articulable suspicion to stop the vehicle in the first place and probable cause to make the arrest after the stop. We will try all DWI complaints to a verdict unless it appears that a guilty plea is in the best interests of the client . Over the years I have been fortunate to serve as Chairman of the New Jersey State Bar Association Municipal Court Committee, testify in the New Jersey State Legislature to reform DWI laws, serve as a Municipal Prosecutor, have articles on Standardized Field Sobriety Tests published in the New Jersey Lawyer and train other lawyers how to defend DWI cases in various seminars, most recently in three seminars presented by the New Jersey Institute for Continuing Legal Education. I represent clients across the State of New Jersey, trying cases literally from one end of the State to the other. If you believe that your driver's license is worth fighting for, contact us immediately. Remember to give careful attention to the selection of an attorney, as proper representation can make a substantial difference in the outcome of your case. I hope we have the opportunity to speak soon. Peter H. Lederman, Esq. Lomurro, Davison, Eastman, and Muoz, P.A.
