    The breath test gives a result straight away. If it shows you’re not over the drink drive limit, you may be allowed to go.

    Here's a question for you I've been charged for drink driving but I wasn't driving at the time I was arrested so how on earth can I be arrested and charged for something I haven't done I had been to the pub which I had walked to and left there to go to another pub while on my way there I was stopped by the police and told someone had reported me for drink driving but I was walking so as I said how can they arrest me for doing nothing wrong and what are the chances of the case being dropped and nothing comes of it

      Hd40 they won't accept drinking wine at a church as an excuse, there's no excuse for being over the limit. I knew someone who got drunk, he hung his car keys up in the back of the car and went to sleep, a police officer woke him, breathalysed him, he got charged, but because of the circumstances and that he'd lose his driving job, they banned him from driving for only a month and he kept his driving job. Idk how he kept it though as the company don't accept anyone with a DD on there licence and it stays on it for about 10 years, I guess they must of kept it from going on his licence somehow.

    I got charged with failing to provide, idk how anyone can blow in that thing at the police station, 1st time they gave me more chances to blow and it was under so I went home, second and last time they only gave me 2 chances to blow, so I was charged for failing to provide, I managed to get a free solicitor, he got me a free psychologist, the cps never sent us the video footage that we requested, on the morning of my court case my solicitor got an email from the cps saying there not pursuing the case, my solicitor said its likely because it would cost for them to get there own psychologist to fight my psychologist so all charges got dropped.
    The cps didn't even attend court, the court was puzzled too, they knew I was in there but wasn't sure why, my solicitor had to explain to them. I don't drink any alcohol now. I won't even get in a vehicle with anyone who's had any alcohol now.

    Sir good evening, I'm a filipino new comer here in karratha I was been caught by the cops driving with .08 range of alcohol in a breath test. My licensed ban for 2 months. These March 11 I go to court. My question is there is a fine for it or what should I do.? Thank you so much sir for your time.

    Is this a procedural error on MGDDA form,
    1. Question A8 = Officer: any alcohol drink consumed since the time of the alleged offence'? Me: yes, Officer: let me ask you again have you consumed any alcohol drink since you were stopped? Me: No, 2nd Officer: So since you were detained? Me: no.
    2. Question A11 Officer asks same question but in the last 20 minutes. I gave no response but only shook my head however officer specifically writes No and not no reply and doesn't make a note of a nod.
    3. Question A17 providing the copy of print outs and reading out the statement in ittalic. Officer do not read the ittalic statement and just hand me over a copy to sign.
    4. No MGDD D form was filled out due to question A8 although stating during the interview no alcohol was consumed prior to driving and only moments before arrest.
    All this is backed up by CCTV evidence which I have confirmed.

      You can politely turn road side breathalyser untill you get to station. Then when you are checked in make sure to ask if there are mgdda papers questions to go over and ask to see the evidence brought against you. Then you may give when asked in permission to accept to breathalyser process it might be well under the limit. If I. Doubt ask for that you disagree with the reading and you would need to double check if the reading is correct by doing a second or third session.
