Drink Driving
Apr 29, 2010
Drink driving - Body Building Supplements.
I was arrested for drink driving and recorded 49 for the first breathlizer and 50 for the second.
the policeman said i can have a blood test or a urine test. i asked what difference would it make? he said he couldn't answer the question i am scared of needles which i informed the officer and said i but dont mind doing a urine sample. He said he chose which i had and that his decision was for me to have a blood test.
i explained about my needle phobia
i am 18 i dont normally drink at all and only consumed 1 can of heinkein at a friends birthday party which is extremly rare. i cannot understand why i was over. i have been suffering from heartburn and indegestion due to the "maximuscle" mixture i have been taking as part of an intensive gym work i have been doing i dont know if that has played apart in my digestion, but i am confused and baffled as to why i would be over the limit with 1 can of heinkein.
iwould like some advice as how to proceed
am i eligible for legal aid? will it affect my A levels as i am due to take my final exams in a few weeks and will attend Birmingham university in September. i am very worried as to the consequences and possible criminal record

I don't deal with legal aid matters. I only represent people on a private basis.
You maybe able to get legal aid for this matter but you would need to talk to a local legal aid solicitor in that regard. They may be able to help.
You may have an argument in relation to the officer insisting on a blood sample when you have a phobias of needles, did he let you give urine instead?
I don't understand the reading either. You would have to get a pharmacology's to do a report which would probably cost you around £800-1000 so if you can get legal aid that would be good.
It's difficult because you are not suggesting that you consumed alcohol unknowingly so I can't see where the extra alcohol could have come from other than you drank more than you say and that is probably the conclusion that the court will reach. Is their a chance that your alcohol could have been laced with a spirit by your friends playing a joke?
