DUI Arrests in West Orange NJ
West Orange is a growing central Essex County township, estimated in 2010 to have a population of more than 46,000 residents. Due to its close location to Manhattan, NY, it is considered a part of the New York metro area and has several major highways and roadways that travel through the township including Interstate 280 and Route 10. This naturally adds to the number of DWI arrests that take place within the town each year by West Orange Police, and Route 280 sees its fair share of DUI stops by State Troopers. West Orange Township Municipal Court, where most DWIs are heard, is located on Main Street. The township’s dense population and busy roadways ensure this court sees defendants on a regular basis. With New Jersey’s strict drunk driving laws, implied consent to take the Alcotest machine (Breathalyzer) and a proscription against plea bargains for DWIs, as a DUI defendant, you have a challenging road ahead. However, if you can demonstrate that the charging officer behaved improperly, you have an effective means of fighting your charges. This could be a lack of probable cause, an unjustified vehicle stop, incorrect administration of your breathalyzer, or any number of other possible errors during the arresting process.
