Until last year, here in Virginia a .10 BAC gave a rebuttable presumption that the driver was DUI. The tough sentences make it worthwhile to get a lawyer and fight when there is only a rebuttable presumption. Like challenging probable cause - the report shows that his driving behavior was simply driving slow - I would have challenged probable cause for the stop and probably won. Too bad he didn't get a good lawyer. But back then it wasn't a big deal. Marijuana is tolerated much more now than it was then, in my experience. Marijuana users don't get jail time for a first offense, not here in Fairfax. And you've got to be awfully dumb to even get arrested for marijuana, like smoke in front of a cop. Every client I ever had that got busted for simple possession let a cop search his car at a traffic stop. Dumb, dumb, dumb.
