As the title says I've been charge with that .and it says attempting to drive
ok . Basically I had 1 drink. Then drove like down few roads lost control on a roundabout due to the weather conditions. And I managed to crash into another car.
Police turned up quite quick I belive they was passing by.
anyway I was breathalyser road side n blew quite high. Then was taken to the station .I think I was arrested with suspicion of drink driving.
taken to the station where I was search and nothing was found .
was asked to give a sample of breath which I failed to give within the 3mins
I think I had three attempts the machine does take long to reset.
but due to being in a crash I felt it hard to give hard long breaths .
I did say i was in pain. I asked to see a doctor which then they took me to a hospital. At that point they made me feel very low saying i was just wasting their time . Then they said they be taking my bloods and kinda laughing about it because they said they can get more information from that then breath.
At the hospital I was still in shock and pain the doctor checked me over I can't really remember what was say but he asked for permission for blood and I just said no. Then I was taken back to the station.
still being in shock and pain I was then put in a cell and release hours later with a charge of suspected of having to attempted to drive and fail to provide blood .
Yes what I did was dumb and it my first offensive.
Doing a little research could I argue that which I have a phobia of needles. And
I have no tattoos btw
2. Police fail to follow protocol.
They never warn me what would happen if I refuse a blood sample .
I'm 80% they never told me plus asked me why I refused. As I didn't know it was a valid reason at the time I just don't like them.
They never ask for my urine. But on cctv they clearly see me urinate in the cell in the toilet of course.
when arrested I was always calm and never aggressive.
I was never interviewed either .Brough in charged and released.
I have court end of Jan . And I know it Xmas now so don't expect people to reply but would appreciate any help in the bet way to fight this as I need my license. For work and I have two young kids .
I spoke to driving solicitors and they think I have a case but cost way to much .
Buy yeah any help in my steps to take before the hearing be much appreciated
thanks.
I'm typing on a phone so sorry for any errors
