At the start of June 2021, I got pulled over by the police, after a short pursuit I pulled over because I didn't have the fuel to carry on evading them. They had been made aware that I was saying my goodbyes to people and was intending on taking my own life. Because I have a history of mental health issues, and previously been sectioned because of being caught in the act of trying to commit suicide, I became an immediate missing person concern, hence why I got pulled over. I wasn't pulled over for suspicion of drink or drugs, but because I had had a drink, they then insisted that was the reason they pulled me over. It wasn't, I was pulled over for my own well being! I blew a lower reading of 43 at the station, only at this point was I arrested and charged with that offence. I was then released in the morning on unconditional bail, and immediately detained again under the mental health act, and taken to hospital for assessment! I feel this is a miss carriage of justice, furthermore I am homeless, and sleep in my car, so if I lose my license, I lose my last shred of hope to build myself back up, and essentially lose my home too! Please advise
