It's not the job of the police to take anyone's licence, so it sounds to me like they are just reassuring him. Sounds to me like his blood test results show that he was under the limit at the time they took the blood sample. As I said on your other thread, some time ago, if his BrAC was 48mg/100ml blood, he would most likely be under the limit by the time they got around to taking blood at the hospital.

No doubt the duty solicitor will tell him to 'no comment' the entire interview. Maybe the police are going to see if he'll admit to driving without due care and attention, or perhaps speeding - given that it was icy and his car ended up on it's r̷̷̷̷̷̷̷o̷̷̷̷̷̷̷o̷̷̷̷̷̷̷f̷̷̷̷̷̷̷ side.

I honestly believe he's in the clear. I doubt they'd be asking for him to come in for a voluntary interview had his blood test result showed him being over the limit.
Thank you that’s what we are thinking that they are trying to do him for somethink else and for them to say it may not even go to court
 
Also son said police said bloods were over limit
Oh gawd, I'm sorry to hear that. I find it odd that they'd say that it may not even go to court when they know his bloods were over. When I got the phone call, regarding my blood test, the police asked me to attend the police station for an interview. They didn't say it was voluntary, just that I needed to go down to speak to them. Once I got there they took my finger prints, DNA and then told me that I was over the limit.
 
They also never bothered to interview me. Just took fingerprints, DNA and then gave me a court date. They already had everything they needed and there wasn't a great deal I could say anyway, I was bang to rights.

Yeah we are finding it all abit odd he’s going 8pm Thursday after work only thing we can think is that maybe he’s just over the limit

I'm guessing they didn't have enough to take it to the CPS then? I maybe misremembering your son's case, however from memory it sounded very odd from start to finish. I don't mean what you've said sounds odd, just with how the police handled it.

I bet you feel like a weight has been lifted!

It does sound weird. You may have already answered this question, so apologies if you're repeating yourself; regarding the form he had to fill out, has he admitted to driving the car at the time of the incident?

*scratches head* Yep, this one has got me... I know it doesn't take much to confuse me, however this one has got me scratching my bonce. Please do keep us up to date with what is happening (when you know what's going on, that is). With a bit of luck the police will run out of time to take it to the CPS and you and your son will be able to get on with your lives without having to worry about what could happen.

Other than wishing you and your son the best of luck, I can't offer anything else.

Thanks for your help if we hear anythink else will let you know
 
I am in a very similar situation to your son @aliceblanchard , incident back in at the start of Dec 2024 and no bloods back until mid April I blew 80 at the scene but was left in the hospital for 5.5hrs before blood taken. I had a letter in the post late April saying the bloods have arrived and they want me to come in for an Interview. Since then I've only been in contact with the officer via email and told them I wont be able to attend until the 1st week of June as I'll be abroad all next week, they still haven't responded to that email which was nearly 2 weeks ago. @Xeronema do you think I'm in the clear in this case also?

Yeah my son just wants it to go court and if he gets a ban can get on with his life he said all this waiting is doing his head in

I finally got an email on the 7th saying that the case is closed because the time limit expired 🎉 Will be seeing this as a huge letoff and a lesson learned.

I wish the best of luck in your son's case, hopefully nothing will happen but even if it does, that will be some clarity for the road ahead.

That’s brill news when did u first get stopped by police for all of this my sons got 4 weeks left now and we have heard nothing. He’s lost a £8000 car and not been able to get a new car since it happened so in some ways he’s paid for it all lol

I’ve been watching your thread from the day you posted I hope you get a positive outcome for your son.
Fingers crossed as you are all on the final stretch and he’s definitely paid his dues in fines 🙏

Thank you that’s so kind of you I hope we get a good out come he knows he’s done wrong he ain’t had a drink since then he’s too scared to as he’s got a work van and does not want to risk anythink. I think losing his £8000 car he already paid as we couldent get anythink on insurance as police told them he blew over at roadside but they did say a she dident claim won’t effect his no claims
