OK, ***NOT*** me, but, have a question.
Person rear ends a car... Nobody is hurt... Person fails field sobriety test... Person refuses to take breathalyzer on the scene... Person booked for DUI... Person refuses to take breathalyzer at the police station... Person go to first court hearing and requests extension... Person goes back pays an additional $4k in fines and case dropped.
Now I know you can refuse a breathalyzer test on the scene wo/ the "automatic" suspension. However, I thought if you refused the one at the station it was an automatic 12m suspension of your license?
-or-
Is this just a case of knowing the right lawyer who knows the right DA etc. ?
