On the 9th of December 2019, I was parked and waiting for a friend who was meant to drive me somewhere. I opened my boot of my car to take something from it. Then the police came around they decided to give me breath test which I failed on the spot.
They took me to the police station to do another breath test which I failed. They got a duty solicitor who advised me not to say anything because, in her words, ‘we do not know what they have’. They said they would investigate the matter.
A few days ago, I got a letter in the mail. In it they confirmed they have charged me with drink driving over the limit.
In the charge letter they claimed I was driving, which I wasn’t.
What I don’t understand is how can I be done for drink driving when I wasn’t driving?
Please is there anyone who can advice me on how to proceed?
Thanks guys,
