Hi, so I was involved in a road traffic accident on 30/11/18 involving 2 other vehicles, no one was hurt. I admitted to the police at road side that I had a drink and was taken to the police station. No road side breath test was taken.
I blew 48 at the station but was offered no blood tests. I went in for a quick interview admitted I had 2 beers and was released pending an investigation. I still have my driving licence at present.
As I was driving a company car and work as a sales person I thought it best to come clean with my boss. He let me hand my notice in rather than being sacked. I obviously can not apply for another job as I don't know what is going to happen with my licence. I have had no correspondence from the police since then (over 6 weeks ago). I have since split with my partner and had to move out meaning I am struggling to support my kids and the waiting is killing me.
I need a driving licence or I'm done for. What do I do? Is it normal to wait this long? I assume I am looking at a minimum 12 months? Is there anyway around this as my lovely hood depends upon me working? I should also mention that I am type one diabetic and it is poorly managed. I have heard that this can cause raised levels of ketones in my breath which can make readings higher than normal? The police were aware of this as I had my medication with me at the time of my arrest.
I know what I did was wrong but the repercussions of this are being felt by my ex (finacially) and my kids(as I am not seeing them)
Any help would be great? Thanks
