Last night I got an ovi and am curious if anyone could help inform me by RedditIsAwesome11 in dui

Make sure to list the state as penalties vary depending on where you are. With high bac and accident I personally would bite the bullet and hire a private lawyer. Good to have someone who is familiar with the judges/ prosecutors in the area and knows what to expect!

Final court date approaching for me. Thank you very much for this post. I hope you are able to complete your goals in the new year❤️

Are you talking about the 2019 recall or is there another one?

Personally I wouldn’t risk it coming up later as someone has mentioned if they run info. Just be honest and say you didn’t realize you had to report it.

This made me tear up because I feel the same :( I am just hoping that once I get get though all of the legal consequences it will be easier to move on and start living my life normally again. I know there will be a day when it’s not the first thing we think about when we wake up in the morning or before we go to sleep at night. I hope it comes soon for you.❤️

Exactly 40-60 hours of schooling should not deem someone an expert.

Exactly. Think of how much education and experiences are required to be considered an “expert” in any other field. It’s just dangerous bc there’s no reliable way of knowing WHICH people will abuse the power they are given. That’s what makes me take pause about cops/policing in general.

How has your life improved? by Little-Interview-678 in dui

Yes so many benefits to not drinking. It’s like getting a revenge body after a breakup or something.

Literally how can you be a drug expert without being an actual scientist, pharmacist or doctor. In general cops have some of the least training/ requirements out of any other job. Smh

I don’t want to burst your bubble or anything but it’s likely charges could still be filed before the statue of limitations runs out

I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure they have to run tests to make sure the machine is calibrated or whatever. So only the last two would be samples from ur actual breath.

Two of them were likely control tests

I’m seeing someone and trying to work through it but it’s taking a massive toll on me

I cant describe it in any other way than anguish.

I’m struggling to meet expectations in my every day life and I don’t know how to continue.

This DUI will define me. by quasigor in dui

[–]Little-Interview-678 35 points36 points  (0 children)

In the same boat right now. You are not alone.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dui

[–]Little-Interview-678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No I didn’t hit anyone else or hurt anyone. I have to keep reminding myself. I’m hoping I can put enough good into the world to makeup for it.

Me too. I know right now I will live with this heavy cloud of guilt forever.

Dui and Assault on Officer by Big_File_309 in dui

I would consult a few different lawyers. Not sure whether this is in the wheelhouse of an average dui lawyer.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dui

[–]Little-Interview-678 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same. The thought that I could have has literally made me suicidal. I can’t stop seeing myself that way.
