This article will address what you can do if caught drunk driving in Israel. All issues related to drunk driving and traffic violations are overseen by the <\/span>Ministry of Transport and Road Safety<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

In another article on drunk driving, we\u2019ve listed the legal definition of drunk driving, the punishment, and options for refusal of testing (quick tip: don\u2019t refuse unless you have a medical condition that would be negatively impacted), which you can read about in Drunk Driving in Israel – Israeli Traffic Lawyer<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is important to note that drunk driving is one of the most serious driving offenses.<\/span><\/p>\n

Steps to Take if Caught Drunk Driving in Israel<\/b><\/h4>\n

If you are caught drunk driving in Israel, the following steps can help you and a lawyer to try and minimize the punishment for this offense. The main thing you can do is to be aware of any improper conduct by the police officer.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 1: Make sure you document this on your cell phone, or if you have other people in the vehicle with you, ask one of them to document it for you. This evidence can be reviewed by a lawyer who can make sure the police officer acted according to protocol, and if they did not, this will make it easier to argue for a lighter sentence.<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 2: Make sure you write down the names of the police officer(s) that pulled you over, how long you were delayed, the various transitions between police officers if there are multiple ones you interact with, what time the drunk driving test is administered, and what type of test is administered (urine, breath, or blood).<\/span><\/p>\n

Step 3: Give this information to a lawyer who specializes in traffic law and drunk driving violations.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is important to try and document this information without attracting the attention of the police officer. <\/b>This is for two primary reasons; first, officers often prefer not to be documented when carrying out their work, and second, if they see you documenting the incident, they may be very careful to follow all the procedures correctly, which will minimize your ability to argue for a lesser punishment.<\/span><\/p>\n
