Underage DWI law is covered under N.J.S.A. 39:4-50.14. The elements that the prosecution must show are as follows:
1) The driver was under 21
2) The driver operated a motor vehicle on New Jersey roads
3) The driver had any amount of alcohol in his or her system at the time of the stop
Note: Our firm utilizes a former State trooper who is certified in field sobriety testing and as a certified operator of the Alcotest 7110, the breath testing device used in New Jersey DWI cases. He reviews the evidence, police reports, and videos and will draft a report to challenge the State’s evidence in your case.
