Got pulled over last night and being charged with a DUI

[dante1]

Also something funny about this thread. Theres a piece of shit in this thread that was calling anybody who drinks and drives a asshole in a thread the other day. But they are being sympathetic in this thread. What a 2 faced piece of shit. Unreal..only on the internet.

That piece of shit was me you asshole and I am not being sympathetic, don't you know how to read. You are the piece of shit that can't even read. Read my post again you idiot.

And btw if you drink and drive you are an asshole, and if you hurt one of my family you have more to worry about than the law.

hey buddy, i know it sucks to wake up to this realization. i saw someone say, "take it from me, I've got 2 duis." We'll im going to one up that prick and let you know I have 3 DUIS. I might as well be a fuckin dui defense atty. I've reseached and read and studied almost everything that is out there. if you want to talk let me know, i might be able to provide some further insight for you. I probably wouldn't of rrefused the tests and fought the shit out of it, but you know whats best foryour self when you make that decision. also i know this is going to sound bad, but you can't let it effect you negatively. i said **** it when i had my license suspended, i had to drive to work and to the program. Oh yea thats another thing, i finished an 18 month program for rehabilitation and got sent right back in. Thats probably going to be the worst part of the punishment for you aside from the financial aspect, and hopefully you don't do any jail time. anyways keep your head brother, you know where to find me if you wanna talk about it. oh yea one other word of advice, always be proactive in a situation like this. don't wait to find things out, don't let it just come to you. also you have 10 days to request a dmv hearing for your temporary license. good luck brother i feel you pain! i know have a IID in my car i can't drink and drive nada no way.

good advice...

[The Bet Master]

I don't feel bad for you at all. The problem in this country is people like you trying to get away with a DUI. Hopefully the judge is hard on you.

[oiler]

I am so fvcked

Pulled over for 29 over on the inetrstate coming home from the bar i stopped at after work. Only had 3-4 but did not take any tests or answer any questions because i wasnt going to risk it. So now i got court at the end of March. Havent talked to an attorney yet but im going to pay loads of money to get out of this.

i sure hope u put this out just to show how u fukked up .dui is a serious offense and im sure ur glad u didnt hurt someone,maybe its just god way of showing u that u have another chance and at least u didnt hurt or killed someone.think of it as a lucky break

[Hazious]

dont even get me started bet master. you can choke on my cawk if you think the problem with the country is people trying to get away with DUI. the problem is that state officials are trying to ring and much profit and revenue from the people as possible. soon you wont even be able to sneeze in your car without being arrested... same thing goes with that big mac in your mouth. the laws are changing as such so that the officers can have any excuse to pull you over and further investigate and try to ticket you for something. its a big fukin game and im not willing to just let it happen. im going to go against the grain.

how bout this bitch:

i don't condone drinking and driving but sometimes you find yourself in a situation where you have to. on my second dui i was parked legally in a residential neighborhood and the cops claimed to have performed a wellfare check on me because i was unresponsive. total bullshit lie which I caught them in via the in car audio / video. they were fishing for something, and when they came to me and realized i had alchohol on my breath, they immediately knew they had something to work with. but because of all of this, i had to drop close to 10k on an atty just to fight it because i was so worried. my license is my livelihood, im in southern california and all i do is drive.

anyways all I can say is if you're out there riding dirty, watch ur mother fukkin 6.

[Flexin]

Its said that there are so many people that will say "Take it from me, I had XXX number of DUI's and this is how you get out of it."

Why can't they ever say "I have had XXX number of DUI's and you have to use this as your wake up call. You could have killed yourself and/or someone else. If your going to drink, find a way home."

Its sad. Take a cab, crash at someones house rather then into it, get a hotel. All these options are cheaper.

And you know damn well he didn't have 3/4 drinks right from the start. Not many people tell the truth about how many they had. Later he goes on to say he was drinking the companies dime. This guy was pounding them back. He should have never been behind the wheel of a car.

Yeah, the problem is with some of these assholes one offense isn't enough they have to get caught multiple times and then give advise on how to beat it. Instead of saying--hey asshole don't drink and drive, some of them defend the practice.

I have no patience or pity for these guys, two, three and four times wtf is wrong with them. If you must drink then drink at home or make arrangements. I have no problem with a family member beating half to death a person that hurt their kid because of drunk driving. Yet some of these hand jobs actually attempt to defend their actions. Saying they had no choice. What a fvktard.

[Reno Paul]

you can kiss $5000 goodbye.

I'm thinking $10,000 after all is said and done.

Yeah its its not the drunks fault they just had to get home. Its the man trying to make money for the state. Give it a rest. Don't want to pay 10K in court fees? Don't drive drunk. You had to get home? Do you know how many limo rides 10k will get you?

If risking your life and the life of everyone else on the road isn't enough to get you to stop drunk driving you would think "my license is my livelihood" would at least be enough to do it. I know someone that was caught with a dui. He was a truck driver on vacation. Pulled over in his car. Now he has no license which means he can't earn a living driving. He has to try to pay off fines, try to find someone that will hire him again and start over.

You never have to get home that bad to drive drunk. Stop drinking and driving before its too late.

James

[Smoke]

Ok. I guess the laws are different everywhere. Dui's are serious shit. But anytime a lawyer os senator get caught dui, they all refuse. God forbid, I would want to do what they do.

http://v7.lscache7.googlevideo.com/v...=youtube_gdata

Yea Illinois DUI laws are pretty harsh. As I said before even are first time offender can get up to 360 days in jail, depending on the judge as well as how good the defendants lawyer is. You are required in Illinois to submit to an alcohol test if their is suspicion. My guess is the arresting officer will appear in court and tell the judge what he observed and if he believed the defendant was intoxicated. Its the officers word against fortheloveofgames word. Who do you think the judge will believe. If he wants to avoid serving time and having his wallet take a huge hit, I would move out of state and not show up to court.

exactly

[ngates815]

These damn rednecks speeding, driving sh*tfaced on the highway. I'm sure you & NGates were excited to get out of the hot ass machine shop early on a Friday....since all the sweeping was caught up....but that's no excuse to be speeding home to your mobile homes drunk!!! Not like you were going to be gettin' laid.....especially that gay-ass virgin Ngates!!

ahhahahahha

[THE PROFIT]

Not true...I have friends that were convicted without blowing...the states attorney and po po used the smell on his breath, the way he walked and some of the answers to questions to find him guilty....

what I meant by didnt blow is all tests. I dont think he did a field sobriety test either, so none of that matters. He didnt do shit & that is always the best. Ask any lawyer & they will all tell you to not say or do a fukin thing.

If they ask you to walk a line or blow into anything just say "I don't think I will be participating in that activity today"

[THE PROFIT]

Bullshit, laws vary state to state. Your states laws might be soft but dude says he lives in Illinois. In Illinois there is a consent law that requires all drivers to submit to alcohol testing if pulled over for suspicion of DUI. If he is found guilty, which he will be unless he gets a damn good lawyer, in Illinois even a first offense carries a penalty of up to 360 days in jail plus fines, license suspension , and other penalties depending on who is the judge. Some judges will throw the book at you and some won't.

yes maximum penalty here also is 11 months 29 days, as it is with all fukin misdemeanors, but minimum is 48 hours.

If a judge gives you a year for a first offence low class misdemeanor he must have caught you fukin his wife

[ngates815]

Here in Illinois, you don't blow and your license is suspended for 12 months. If you do blow and it's over .08 then your license is suspended for 6 months.

And I picked my brother up at 3in the morning he was in jail for a total of 3.5 hours.

So every state has different laws.

My brother also got off his charge because he never took the breathalyzer at the police station, only the one on the street, which you can't be charged from that one alone.

[Reno Paul]

Got a DUI in 1981.....Got a night in the drunk tank, a $333 fine and traffic school once a week for a month ........A slap in the wrist LOL.

Boy have times changed and for a good reason.......You can thank MADD for that.

[forloveofthegame]

thanks for all the advice guys. Its not looking good right now for me but i have to live with the choices i made. As i said i was an hour away from my house its the weekend i didnt even consider calling a cab etc.. i wasnt just going down the street. my plans are to get an attorney here monday and see what he can do for me. As stated they have nothing on me but as someone stated refuse is the same as failing yet i do have some wiggle room..

Haz, thanks for the support man. i will keep you in mind if i have any questions

[THE PROFIT]

refusing is not the same as failing. You did the right thing. You will lose your license a year, but you can get restricted to drive to work, a DUI wont be on your record, you wont have to pull jail time, and wont have to pay sr22 insurance

[Richkas]

When your numbers up, your numbers up. Who gives a phuck. If I had a family member killed by a drunk driver sure I would be devastated. But I wouldnt turn weird about it either. I have alot of friends who drink and drive. If you think all of a sudden I would hate them your wrong. Its the people who cant handle their liquor who drive and kill people. Period. Now all you sissys keep arguing. I'm going to watch hoops.

[pavyracer]

Get a good lawyer. The judges don't mess around with DUI's. They will throw the book at you if you don't have a good lawyer.

Good luck!

[forloveofthegame]

what is the best way finding the top lawyers in your area?

Give your head a shake. Your wrong and if you don't know that your sad.

James

[Trident]

when drinking & driving why are you reckless driving??? Thats about as stupid as it gets.

No what's stupid is even getting behind the wheel in the first place.

[Albert Pujols]

Hire a good attorney and all charges will be dropped. You will lose your license for one year but you will be able to drive after one month anywhere in Illinois with a breathalyzer installed in your car. You made the right decision to not do any tests. Had you blown, you would have only had a 6 month suspension but criminal charges and 2k fine.

I blew .097 and now have a criminal record because of it. Just learn from your mistakes and move on. Not the end of the world.

[Albert Pujols]

What city are you in?

[forloveofthegame]

What city are you in?

new lenox il.

i have heard good things about one here from some buddies might check him out.

[tonycarr]

what is the best way finding the top lawyers in your area?

You can ask around or go to the court and hang around usually all the good lawyers will be there. Listen the verdicts being handed down you'll get a feel for it.
On a side note here in Ohio a DUI=Driving under the Influance. That means any amount. You can blow a .01 and your guilty.
DWI is driving while Intoxicated that is what your charged with when you blow over the limit of .08.
Normally if you blow the lawyer gets it reduced down to a DUI.
If you refuse the lawyer can get a DUI changed to wreckless or some other lesser charge.

First question every lawyer will ask. Did you take a breath test? No, good here's what we can do.........

[Trident]

I blew .097 and now have a criminal record because of it.

You broke the law and endangered innocent people, you deserve a criminal record for your actions.

Whatever. I have a great life. If its sad to you then so be it. I dont have to work. I gamble all the time, and I have a hot young lady and 2 fantastic boys who are very smart and love me very much. I care a less what people say or think about mee.

[tonycarr]

You broke the law and endangered innocent people, you deserve a criminal record for your actions.

Another big part of is people have very different tolerances as well. Joe blow A drinks 2 drinks is well under the limit but cant walk a straight line.
Joe Blow b drinks 2 large drafts after work in an hour goes home has a couple more and is just fine.

I remember a cop friend of mine was telling me about this guy that went to the police station for something or other the guy for all intents and purposes seems stone cold sober. They asked if had been drinking because they could smell it and he said "Yeah Ive probably had 6 beers" They tossed him on the breath machine and sure enough blow over a .2
He drank a 12 pack+ a day it didnt effect him the same way.

[Trident]

I don't think so, with people bragging about how many DUI's they have had and how to beat them I think they still haven't learned anything.

When you lose two innocent family members to a driver who was DUI I'm sure you would have the same attitude towards them as I do.

Again DUI is not DRUNK DRIVING its driving while under the influnce. Thats any amount. Could be 1 beer 2 hours ago.

Have you ever had 4 beers and then drove? Most everyone is guilty of DUI at one time or another. The law is bullshit. .08 does not equal impairment automatically.
