"I'll plead guilty and just get it over with." - Why this may not be a good idea.

Impaired Driving and Over 80 cases can often be won by advancing Charter based challenges to the admissibility of evidence which can therefore render the breath sample evidence inadmissible at trial. In addition, detailed cross examination of the police officers can elicit technical deficiencies in the evidence that can also result in the exclusion of the breath results yielding a not guilty verdict.

The use of expert evidence, commonly consisting of an expert toxicologist, can advance defences based on "evidence to the contrary". For more information on the experts we use, visit Forcon Forensic Consulting.

There are ways, with an experienced lawyer, to advance aggressive defences in order to protect you from getting a criminal record and losing your driving privileges. Because of the significant consequences that result from a conviction, there is virtually no incentive to pleading guilty, especially if this is the first time being charged.
