Re: 45BB/100 followed by a trip to jail!
[ QUOTE ]
i think you had a decent shot at blowing under .08. It was a mistake to refuse the breathalyzer. [/ QUOTE ] I had a defense lawyer for a professor this year and she said I'll give you all three pieces of free legal advice. Number One was to never, ever, ever, ever, take a breathalyzer if you have even a 5% chance of failing. In MA it results in automatic license suspension to refuse, but you'll get that anyway plus it gives them a lock when it comes to court down the line. Obviously I don't condone drunk driving, but anyone here who doesnt realize that 90% of people leaving Italian restaraunts are over the legal alcohol limit from th wine are kidding themselves. Nobody advotes not serving wine with dinner.

[ QUOTE ]
I refused a blood test years back and beat a DUI. The cops messed up by video taping me during the sobriety tests. Even thought I was drinking for over 12 hours I looked totally sober during the tests and a jury of my peers agreed and I ended up walking faster than O.J. I'm guessing that I would of blown close to a .30 or higher and ended up walking. Gotta love America. I would suggest calling a lawyer and not posting on here anymore about how many beers you had in a night. "Remember what you say can and will be held against you!" One of these pricks on here are liable you send a copy of this post to your local D.A. [/ QUOTE ] I was thing of what too call you...but seeing as YOU compared yourself to OJ...I guess that will do.. If someone in your family gets killed by a drunk driver, I wonder how funny you'll find it if the driver has a history just like you... Maybe you can saddle up beside the guy and suggest he call a lawyer....

Re: 45BB/100 followed by a trip to jail!
Wow, everyone on this board is perfect. The OP made a pretty good job at explaining how he knew it wasn't smart to drink and drive, and all you guys can do is tell him he's a [censored] idiot and HSSKH. It's good to have people like you guys around who don't make any mistakes.

Results
Just in case anybody cares, I thought I would give an update on my situation. After speaking with a lawyer, I found out that refusing the breathalizer turned out to be the best thing I could have done.
The particular county I live in offers something called a WHIP Refusal program for 1st time offenders that didn't blow. It works something like this. I am required to take a 36 hour weekend SATOP course which will allow me to not lose my license whatsoever and the charge will be taken completely off my record. It will be just like it never happened. Yeah! Bad news is that after the lawyer fees, SATOP class, and fines, it's going to cost me about $2000. Hopefully this will teach me my lesson.

Re: Results
Im glad you're getting off. Driving drunk is fun and I think it's pretty unlikely that youd run over an 8 year old girl on the side of the road in the middle of the night. Don't listen to all these losers crying about people getting killed by drunk drivers. People die everyday, it happens, they need to stop whining and deal with it.
