Hi All I am due in court tomorrow and just wanted to get opinions on the letter I will be reading out really appreciate any feedback
I blew a 51 and have no previous convictions
To the Presiding Magistrate,
Firstly I would like to take this opportunity to apologise to the court and the police for my actions that have lead to me being here in front of you today.
My behaviour on the evening of the 12th of June was completely irresponsible and I am fully aware of the devastating consequences my actions could have had. I am ashamed to be stood here for committing the offence, which sees me appear before you today.
I have no excuses for my actions, I honestly made one of the biggest mistakes of my life and something that is going to affect me for a long time to come. A silly argument with a loved one and me driving alone for less than a mile from where I was staying is now going to have implications on my life and many others around me.
I use my car to travel to and from work that is based in -------. As a UK national account manager using a car is imperative to my job which requires me to meet customers and attend meetings weekly. This being taken away from is going to impact the way I conduct my work greatly.
My partner lives in --------- and my parents in -------- whom are elderly. Not being able to drive to see them is going to be extremely hard on them as I help to care for and take them for days out.
My partner has a 7-year-old child who I also help with school runs and days out when she is at work so my actions will have implications on her life also.
Before this offense I have no previous convictions with the Police and want to reassure the court that this behaviour is not a true representation of the person that I am. This was a huge mistake that I made which I am sorry for.
I have been driving for over 18 years and knowing that this will be taken away from me today is devastating. I have no previous drink driving convictions and this is an offence I will never commit again.
I would also like to take this opportunity to put myself forward to take the drink driving rehabilitation course as I feel this will allow me to learn further about the implications of my actions.
I would like to state again my sincere apologies for my behaviour and promise the court I will not do this again.
Sincerely
James Finlay
