Evening all, I’m new here and have a query after the stupid situation I have got into, completely stupid of myself and 100% out of character, being 30 with completely clean criminal record and 12 years completely clear driving record. I fully understand I have done wrong and expect my licence to be revoked with no one to blame but myself.
Now that’s out of the way, Recently I was out for drinks, stupidly got in the car to sleep it off, after 4 hours or so I drive 1 mile and decided again this was stupid and I pulled over on a lay-by and slept some more, I was awoke by police and failed roadside breath test and was read my rights and took to the local station where I managed a breath test reading of 60-65, I can’t renember and didn’t get a copy of the print out I’m curious, what’s on my charge sheet is ‘in charge with excess alcohol in breath 2017/12/17’ was in charge of a motor vehicle on a road within vicinity of a local road name From that above will I be chased for drink driving when at court or is that offence what I will be charged with ? I can’t recall if I told the officer that I attempted the initial 1 mile, or if I told him before I was cautioned in general chat before I was breath tested and before I was cautioned. What I did or didn’t say to the officer I’m unclear in my own mind as was still under the influence and had been just woken from a sleep so generally head up bum. As said, I’ve done wrong and know it and now I’m just trying to assess the process and how it’s going to go. I have a solicitor meeting tomorrow and court is on 8th January. I was fully respectful and cooperative at the time Thanks for any reply |
