DUI a week ago. What to do/expect.
I am having a real hard time coping and not fully freaking out.
Got off work last Friday and had a few with some co-workers. Driving home and all of a sudden lights behind me. I wasn't speeding excessively, dont recal doing anything untoward. A smell like alcohol but also work at a brewery so I thought id be ok. I was not.
Blew a .15. Spent the night in the tank. It might be the worst moment of my life.
Im married with kids and too old to have made such a foolish mistake. I've been sober since. Not that this is a defense, just saying how absolutely embarrassed and ashamed I am. Not to mention the terror of not knowing.
What do I do? Im not trying to fight it. I willingly did a test. But what can I do to mitigate the damage? I drive my kids to and from school, drive for field trips and sports, ect.
Is the dmv hearing only if im trying to contest? My court date is in December..but Is there a possibility of 6 months in Jail?!
Ill enroll in class, do the IID, anything but that. Please. Thank you and appreciate any feedback.
