Probation before judgement
I fell asleep behind the wheel and hit a road sign the cop saw me and pulled me over. He gave me a breathalyzer test because I guess he felt I was drunk I passed that test. I think when he saw me he was supposed to be getting off duty because and another cop came and wrote my citations for me and he left. The new cop got me with going 85 in a 55 which I do not debate but think it probably was no more than 65 because I had the car in cruise control at 60 (That is just a payable citation so not too worried about that). They got me with negligent driving which I also do not debate because I was negligent that is also payable. Lastly they got me with eluting the cop he said he was trying to pull me over for 2 miles. I did not see the cop until after I hit the sign and then I maybe went a half mile until I saw it was safe to pull over on the left shoulder of the road. If the cop had been behind me for that long which I doubt I would hardly call 2 miles eluting the cops I was just trying to pull over to where it was safe. I was wondering do I have case and would this violate my probation before judgement for a dui i got 10 months ago.
Re: Probation before judgement
If you were on probation for 1 year? - Yes, a conviction, maybe even for negl. driving could violate your probation. From the facts provided, I would not plead guilty or pay any fines. Paying fines is the same as pleading guilty. This would be a case that will go to court because of the eluding charge.
