HI All,
Been following these threads for quite some time and really appreciate all your honesty and support.
I'm very. V confused about the back calculation, involved in a bump a couple of weeks ago and really struggled to do the breatherlyser, police very helpful and just happened to be passing. A couple of my airbags went off so managed to get car off the road. Other driver left very quickly having given contact details etc. This bump really shook me up and as the air bags had gone off the police said they needed to get an alcohol reading but also needed to take me to casualty. Arranged for blood test, taken about 3 hours after accident, have sent my sample off and have a reading of 50, spoke to the doctor who did the test and he said all should now be OK as under the limit. I have since been told some police forces routinely do back calculations, is this true or only for serious accident?
Any info greatly receives, thanks
