Drink Driving

Drink driving is treated seriously under the law in New South Wales and could have a severe impact on your license, career and reputation. A drink driving charge may occur if the police obtain a breath sample and the results indicate a level of alcohol over the “prescribed concentration of alcohol” (PCA). If you have been faced with a drink driving charge you must see a solicitor immediately.
