So I am a subpoenaed witness in a drunk driving case that occurred in Nov.2017.

I now live more than 300 km from the court where the case is being heard.

I was supposed to appear on Feb. 25 2019 but flipped my car on my way there.

It being a single vehicle accident 100% fault was assigned to me.

1. Can I get fault reduced because I was worried about having a warrant out for my arrest?

2. Does the court have to provide a way for me to get there based on my distance from the court?
