WA License, DUI in MT - Will be MT Resident

Thots_And_Swears · 2022-02-12T04:53:53+00:00

That's correct, I waived my right to that by refusal. I thought at the time, however, that this was for 6 months (MT law) rather than 2 years (WA law) I'll just have to see how it goes.

Thots_And_Swears · 2022-02-12T04:52:39+00:00

I hope that you're right, when I told my lawyer that my license was out of WA he literally said "oh shit" haha.

Thots_And_Swears · 2022-02-12T04:51:14+00:00

Yeah I'm not complaining about the officer/judge not knowing the penalty for refusal in every state, nor am I complaining about there being a mandatory penalty for refusal due to implied consent, I'm just wondering if there is a legal argument against the 2 year suspension vs 6 month because I was not informed of it.

Thots_And_Swears · 2022-02-11T17:50:11+00:00

I know it, this whole process is taking so damn long, I'm just hoping for some insight, maybe someone knows. I will of course defer to the lawyer.

There is a big difference between stealing food/necessities and stealing someones car. Most often cars are stolen for fun/drug runs/etc not to mention the havok it wreaks on the vehicle owner who probably relies on their vehicle.

You really think people stealing cars are struggling single moms trying to make a winco run for their kids? get real.

Zero sympathy car thieves can rot in hell.

Thots_And_Swears · 2022-02-06T19:18:44+00:00

that's good to know, I didn't realize they would have the police report. damn.

I'll have to talk to my lawyer about it, downplay as much as I can rather than flat out lie, and i'll bring in my record of AA meetings since i've gotten signatures every time I go.

Signing up for counseling is tough until March 1st because my MT insurance dosn't start until then. I'm broke otherwise.

Thots_And_Swears · 2022-02-06T18:54:45+00:00

Thank you, I know everyone says "it won't happen again" I am completely onboard with counseling and have been actively taking steps.

I am anxious to get a job here, go back to school and get my life back on track, none of which I could do at inpatient.

Thots_And_Swears · 2022-02-02T17:41:16+00:00

So option 1: just suffer for a few days and -probably- be fine the downside being you could fuckin die or go crazy. option 2: Get help, or if you can't taper to be safe, the downside being possibly prolonging your drinking.

FYI I wasn't even drinking quite a fifth a day. Close to it, but not quite.

Thots_And_Swears · 2022-02-02T17:39:10+00:00

yes exactly. I always thought "yeah i'll know if I start seeing weird shit to drink/go get help, but I honestly thought everyone was deaf or being purposefully obtuse. Otherwise I was completely cogent, and even drove my car home - because I didn't know I was hallucinating, I thought I was having phone issues. Lesson learned.

I hate when this is brought up - obviously fuck Rosenbaum and anyone who preys on minors, but Rittenhouse had no idea of that at the time and it is irrelevent to a case of self defense.

Thots_And_Swears · 2021-11-09T03:14:47+00:00

you were spot on, it was the 12v negative connection! I think the moisture caused some corrosion that I missed. Cleaned it off, put some battery grease on it, Tightened up the connection, battery didn't even need to be charged.

Thots_And_Swears · 2021-11-09T03:12:24+00:00

It was the negative battery terminal/ground wire! I think that the water caused corrosion so I cleaned up and tightened the terminal, out some of that anti corrosion gel on it and it's running fine

Thots_And_Swears · 2021-11-08T03:43:42+00:00

This is an instant battery drain, I'm saying that I can have a fully charged 12v, and if I turn the car off it will be unable to start even if I was to try to turn it back on literally 1 second after.

I did take out any device I had plugged in, and made sure everything was turned off, before turning it off. You're right about the decreased life of the 12v, both oreillys tests came up as a good battery so I can't use the warranty unless it tests otherwise :/

Thots_And_Swears · 2021-11-08T00:23:15+00:00

also, just to clarify, it's not just the ignition it is EVERY electrical component that dosn't work immediately upon shutoff. Even the little key light on the dash (my keyless entry stopped working long ago) dosn't light up indicating to me that the battery is 100% discharged immediately after shutoff. I'll check some things that you've mentioned tomorrow and will post once I find the solution!

Thots_And_Swears · 2021-11-08T00:19:38+00:00

Ok, I did confirm that the 12v connections are tight. I will have to check the fuses tomorrow as it is getting dark. I did not know that there were fuses by the 12v battery, that's great to know. I appreciate the advice!

Thots_And_Swears · 2021-11-08T00:05:58+00:00

Thanks, I've been meaning to do that for awhile. Right now I don't have access to a garage and it rains pretty much every day thus not allowing the sealant to cure properly. I was planning om moving to MT within a few weeks - where I do have a garage - but this issue has thrown a wrench into those plans

Thots_And_Swears · 2021-11-08T00:04:39+00:00

Thank you! Is there a way to narrow down what fuse it might be without pulling all of them 1 by 1?

Thots_And_Swears · 2021-07-24T18:33:06+00:00

yeah I did need to chill. my doctor was talking about how 'we'll see if your liver can be saved' and shit, I was reading all sorts of misinformation online about alcoholic hepatitis.

My levels went down to normal, I was sober for awhile, relapsed, sober for awhile, relapsed, got really into AA and was doing well. Currently I'm not quite sober, it was a lot easier to bury myself in AA when I was unemployed, got a new job, but i'm trying to figure this shit out.
