Hi
new member here..I had accident late night when I hit a parked car. Police came and I identified myself as the driver and told them I was drinking.. I felt terrible the moment the accident happened so wanted to come clean..
Police didn’t do a breath check when they arrested me.. they took me to the the police station and I blew 63..
question I have is that I had a drink in the train before driving and I got arrested within 20 mins of leaving the station.. looking at the custody records there is a nearly 2hr gap between being arrested and blowing 63 on the machine at the station.. do I have a case for a lower category punishment as more alcohol could have been digested etc in that 2 hours? Based on what I understood if I had blew 59 or less the ban comes down considerably..
If yes then how do I go about arguing this with the prosecution ?
i have a clean licence and no previous convictions
