Despite facing a Covid-19 Pandemic, many of us will undoubtedly be on the road for Father’s Day. Restrictions are being lifted in many areas and many of us feel safe enough to interact with the family. It may be the first time that some of us are out with family and it’s easy to get carried away. Keep in mind that law enforcement will be out in full force. Police may be out on the roads more visibly due to the recent activity and events in many major cities where protestors are exercising their right to protest, in that same fashion that they are out on full patrols, you may also expect some sobriety points in and around town while traveling.
While no one actually sets out with the expectation of getting a DUI, life happens and mistakes happen and therefore, it is best to be prepared. If you end up imbibing a bit too much while out celebrating fathers day and the little bit of freedom afforded to you to take a break away from quarantining in the home, that is understandable, however, you may end up facing DUI charges if you are pulled over under the suspicion of driving under the influence. Because of changes in bond guidelines, expect wait times when attempting to bond out as you will now have to appear before a judge before you have the ability to get released from jail. This means that Father’s Day lands on a Sunday and you may not be able to get out of jail until the weekday. Also, keep in mind that there may be limited staff due to the Covid-19 pandemic, and the wait time maybe even longer.
