You're Blowing It
You're Blowing It!
On June 1, 2011, the Albany County District Attorney’s Office kicked off its “You’re Blowing It" campaign. At that time we announced a change to our DWI Policy. This Office will no longer offer pleas to reduced charges where a person refuses to take a breathalyzer or blood test after being arrested for Driving While Intoxicated or Impaired by Drugs.
