Hi,
My partner was arrested last night for drink driving. He was initially pulled for having a brake light out but they breathalysed him too. He'd had 2.5 pints. He hasn't eaten and doesn't drink generally. He blew and 0.41 at the scene and in the custody suit and then 0.41 and 0.44. After half an hour he blew a 0.31 and they let him go and dropped him off at his car. He has a court hearing in a couple of weeks.
Where does he legally stand? The whole thing took about an hour from arrest to being home. I read as well that they have to offer you a blood or urine sample if you blow under 50. Is this correct as he wasn't offered this?
