Hiya,
Ok this is actually about my girlfriend.
She had 5 large glasses of wine between 1-7.30pm over the course of the afternoon.
She then stupidly drove at 8 15, and crashed at 8 45pm.
She failed the breath test at the road side, and then went to hospital.
After getting checked over, she had blood test at 11.15pm, which they said would be one relied on in court.
We presumed she would still be over the limit at this stage.
She then was taken to police station and told would interview here when was below limit. At 1am she took a test and was found to be quite a bit below - 18, with limit at 35, which came as a bit of a surprise to us and the police.
She was then interviewed and released at 4.15am.
Obviously I am clinging on to the hope that the blood test may be just below the limit....? Any thoughts on this?? ie likelihood, or how likely it would be to have changed in the last 2 hours?
Also she is to appear again in 6 weeks when should have results. I am keen for her to do all that is possible to reduce a ban if she gets one.
Any courses that people could recommend that would be looked on strongly in court?
ie going to AA
Drink related charities?
etc?
Any thoughts on gratefully received!
