A Free Discovery Session

I was pulled over, tested and then released for DUI on alcohol, but wasn’t cuffed and don’t think I was arrested. Do I have a defense?

Probably not. You will likely be arrested by summons/mail when you receive the certified Notice to Appear in the mail. Police need only make an official in-field arrest and Mirandize you when they need to interrogate you for the crime.
