Fell Asleep While Driving Yet Safety Measures Were Taken
best part? this all happened in front of a cop!
Anyways, the story is exactly that- but there pre-story is that I in fact combated my fatigue by
1) Sleeping
2) Consuming an energy beverage
These acquisitions can be proven by my witnesses that were present.
I was the Designated Driver and I in fact had not been drinking at all (0.00 BAC)
I don't think that I should be charged for careless driving since I did take precautionary measures to prevent fatigue at the wheel. These methods have never failed me before, but I guess that day just wasn't a lucky day.
I have two options;
1. Meeting with a prosecutor (Will my charges be dismissed?)
2. Trial (How strong is my evidence?)
I don't want my Insurance to rise nor do I want to pay a hefty fee (490$)
I don't think I'm guilty for this misconduct, also, I don't remember going to sleep*
* My father has a history of blacking out [Actually had to get his license suspended for this] that may have been what happened- is this something I can rectify my trial with?
I uploaded my "Portfolio" which is what I will use as my evidence against the issue- here is the link: Portfolio.doc - 3.1 MB
