If this policeman really wasn't in his jurisdiction then he had no right to stop you or anyone for that matter. Also, if the roadblock was unannounced that is also a problem. In MOST states it is required that police announce the DUI checkpoints prior to conducting them, therefore making it unlawful to pull you over without probable cause. Thank you for your question. AGAIN, I am not a practicing DUI lawyer and this should not be taken as legal advice just as my opinion. Schedule a free consultation with a DUI attorney in your state. @Jack Keep in mind I am not a practicing DUI lawyer, but I highly encourage you plead not guilty based on what you’ve said here.

I've never heard of a one man road block. recently was pulled over by a tribal policeman who was off tribal land, he had both lanes of a two lane highway blocked with his lights on and I thought he motioned for me to go behind him, and as i proceeded he yelled for me to stop, and he got out of his vehichle asking if myself and my pasengers work drunk or on drugs, long story short I recieved a dui because i was a minor though my bac was .07. he called in for someone else to make the arrest. was this road block legal.

But then, they've been handing out DUI citations to people on bikes and motorized chairs, so what do they care?
