Hi all,
So I was pulled over 2 days ago and returned a reading of .202. Driving was a stupid decision and I can't stop thinking about what I've done. I'm worried about the penalties.
I haven't been charged with any serious offenses for over 10 years, which is why I'm so disappointed in myself.
I have a spinal condition called ankylosing spondylitis, which has affected my mental health over the years. I have pretty severe anxiety and over the years chose to self medicate which gave me a high tolerance for alcohol. I haven't drank anything since the offence and made an appointment to see my doctor and get a referral for counseling.
What else can I do to show the magistrate I'm trying to change and rehabilitate myself?
All this being said, what are my chances of going to prison? I'm not a violent person and defending myself in prison will be difficult due to my back problems.
Thank you for your time.
