Constitutional conection:
"In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district where in the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense." (2)

Explanation of connection:
     Now they have invented a DUI breath machines for the police to know if someone is driving under the influence of alcohol. You blow on it and it determines (an educated guess) on how much alcohol you have drank. When it is more than .8% you are sent to court and then it is decided how much do you have to pay.

     This video demonstrates an example of the 6th amendment. How? Well when you are accused of driving under the influence of alcohol you are sent to court. In court they are telling you why you are there and because citizens have behind the 6th amendment on their backs, they have the right to bring witness to defend their point of view.

        In my opinion, I think that the 6th amendment is in the constitution for a good reason. Because when I'm sent to court I want to know WHY I'm there and in order to help me win m case I want to bring witness or another kind of proof that would be in my advantage to use. But if the Unites States didn't have this amendment I wouldn't have that right and I would be..well...I guess in court with no clue on what's going on.
