Changes on the way for DUI Laws in Oregon and Rhode Island?

By Editor

There could be some big changes in the DUI laws in Oregon and Rhode Island. The legislatures in both states are considering amendments to the current laws, and, though nothing has been passed yet, you should be aware of the potential changes.

In Oregon, current DUI law makes it difficult to remove a DUI offense from your record, even if the charges were later dropped, lessened or acquitted.

The new law would make it easier to clear your DUI records if you aren’t convicted of the crime.

In Rhode Island, the new law would give police greater power to request and obtain search warrants in order to draw blood from DUI suspects in order to perform a DUI blood alcohol content test.

The law would only apply to DUI cases where an auto accident is involved.
