South Carolina troopers must try their own drunk-driving cases due to lack of DUI prosecutors in the state, according to MyrtleBeachOnline.com. For cases involving South Carolina drunk drivers, troopers must call their own witnesses, discharge their own subpoenas, and file their own paperwork. By having to try their own drunk-driving cases, South Carolina troopers may be in court from two to seven hours per trial.
