Not being drunk at the time of a drunk driving stop is probably the best defense possible when facing drunk driving charges. If you can prove that you have not, in fact, consumed any alcohol prior to getting behind a wheel, you have a very strong defense against the charges. Even if you did consume alcohol, there are possible defense strategies that can defeat or help reduce charges and sentencing.
