Physical Control in Redmond

Our Redmond Physical Control Attorneys Will Help Explain This Criminal Charge

Redmond CourtPhysical control violations are often misunderstood, even by people who are charged with the crime. Right now the most important fact to understand is that a conviction can cause you and your family plenty of hardship, and could even land you in jail.

If you drive with a blood alcohol level (BAC) of .08 or higher, you can be charged with a DUI, but you can be charged with a physical control violation whether or not you're behind the wheel.

You can even be charged with this crime while entirely outside of your automobile.
