Gibson Gets a DUI for Not Listening to LA Police!

Gibson Gets a DUI for Not Listening to LA Police!

Actor Thomas Gibson arrested for DUI this morning for disobeying the LAPD.

The “Criminal Minds” and “Dharma and Greg” actor, Thomas Gibson, was driving home at 1 am when he stopped for road blocks set up for a Los Angelas half marathon.  Police officials told Gibson that he could not proceed forward and must take an alternate route home.  Gibson ingnored the police and drove into the marathon route.

Idiot!  Rule number 1: follow law enforcements resonable requests, especially if you are possibly DUI!

Lucky for Thomas Gibson he didn’t endanger any of the marathon participants as they had already run  that portion of the road.  However, unlucky for Gibson, whom placed a huge target on his own back for disregarding the law, was pulled over by officers.  The police reported they could smell alcohol on his breath and charged him with DUI.  Gibson did do one thing right that night, he used his legal rights to refuse to take the DUI portable breath test.

TMZ.com reported Gibson’s bail had been set at $15,000 and that he was still in police custody.

Lesson learned… listen to the police and avoid DUI charges.

Snaps! Bobby Brown’s 2nd DUI This Year.

Snaps!  Bobby Brown’s 2nd DUI This Year.

It was only seven months ago when the New Edition singer, Bobby Brown, was charged with DUI and court ordered to complete a summer alcohol rehab program.  Snaps, I guess the rehab program didn’t work because the police pulled the star over around 1 am on Wednesday for a traffic violation and smelled a heavy odor of alcohol on his breath, DUI number two for 2012!  Unfortunately, Bobby Brown opted to take the field sobriety tests on Ventura Blvd, CA, and failed.

If Bobby had heeded the advice of Seattle DUI defense attorney David O, he would have known that the field sobriety tests are voluntary and he could have refused, therefore the test results could not be used against him in court.

According to nydailynews.com, Bobby Brown was cooperative with the officer and was taken to the station, booked, and released within hours after posting $25,000 bail.  If found guilty of a second DUI, Bobby will be facing some serious consequences and jail time.  Here are the DUI tips from David O Defense in Seattle Washington.  Hopefully Bobby Brown catches wind of these.

  1. Be respectful to the officer.
  2. Don’t make any incriminating statements.  For example, “I feel wasted!” or “I’m so drunk!”
  3. Refuse to take the DUI field sobriety tests.  They are voluntary.
  4. Do not take the portable breath test, this test is also voluntary.
