The app for independent voices

So I got pulled over one time with friends. I had a test the next morning, so I told my friends, I would drive them, but that I'd only have two beers. Which is exactly what I did over the course of 2.5 hrs.

I went through a DUI checkpoint. And of course, I had to get out of the car to go through a field sobriety test. I passed it...well because I wasn't drunk. I even asked two police officers if I passed. They said, yes, you're obviously not drunk, but we need you to blow into a breathalyzer.

I refused. This was in CA when their were no exceptions. You had to blow or they'd take your license and take you to jail. So I spent a night in jail and had to get a cash advance on my credit card to pay bail.

I defended myself in court. I received an apology letter from the Dept. of Revenue and received my license back.

True story. That didn't keep me from driving around for 3 months during the time my license was suspended...
