I was stopped the other morning at a static police check (16/06/09) around 08:20 and breathalysed and failed. I was taken to the police station were I blew a reading of 59ug on both tests (there was only about 4 minutes between the 2 tests). I was cooperative at the roadside with the officer and remained pleasant and cooperative throughout the processing at the station. However, I have previous conviction from 10/04/01 and from what I've read this should be an automatic 3 year ban plus fine but I was wondering if the fact that it's been over 8 years since the last conviction will hold any sway with the magistrates. Also from what I've read on some of the posts here that my behaviour with the police may also go in my favour. Any ideas?
