For those of you who have got DUI/Wet wreckless

[THE PROFIT]

Ok man, help me out. I read through this but obviously too quickly. You had 2 beers & took a jog & damaged property & was charged with Driving under the influence but it got reduced to WET WRECKLESS! WTF? WET WRECKLESS doesn't even make sense! How can you be charged with any alcohol related offense after 2 beers. Something stinks in suburbia. I'm not trying to be a smartass man, I would just really like to understand this. I have had a DUI, but I was driving & I was drunk. Not running after 2 beers. What did I miss?

Theres 2 stories here

1) is a incident where i got a stress fracture on my heel and ankle taking a jog to my car during the night. I was running full speed on top of a levi that went into a park area where there was a huge rock in the middle of the trail that i stepped on.

2) I got a wet wreckless after actually driving drunk and crashed my car.

California DUI - Wet and Reckless Reduced Charge


Wet Reckless (enacted January 1982).
Plea Bargin Down from a DUI charge to a 'Wet Reckless' charge
This is a charge to the lesser included offense of violation of 23103. The term wet reckless does not actual appear anywhere in the statutes.
Instead, a 23103 conviction is specially permitted where (1) the defendant pleads guilty to a California DUI violation of 23103, in satisfaction of or as a substitute for, an original charge of non-injury drunk driving 23152, (2) the prosecutor states for the record a factual basis, including facts disclosing whether or not alcohol or drugs were consumed, and (3) the court advises the defendant of the drunk driving sentence enhancement consequences of the conviction (23103.5).

Only looking into liability, of course. Ill prabably buy a 300 dollar car and insure myself under liability on that vehicle and get my dad to insure a car under his name that i'll drive. Thats what ive always done.

did a quick quote on progressive and came to 1380, not horrible for a big company sure i can get better on a cheapo company.

I don't think it will matter much what car you get liability on. You aren't insuring the car so liability on 1995 Tahoe or a 2010 Tahoe should be basically the same. Might be different on a sports car but your DUI and age are the variables that will jack up the price. I saw a cheesy commercial for an insurance company called General or The General if they are in CA. Best of luck to you.
