2 years ago I was arrested for being drunk and eating a hamburger in my drivers seat cause I wanted out of the rain. Charged with a DUI so I've been fighting it obviously and it all boils down to today.

 

He got caught fornicating with a beaver. The beaver said no but he couldn't help himself.

 

"impaired care and control" is the name of the charge

 

Bitches love beaver

 

off the hook for any possible deployment for this Mid East crap! But, I am first in line for any trip that comes down *crossesfingersforHawaii*

 

doesn't look too promising...

WHAT IS MEANT BY "CARE AND CONTROL"?
A person may be in care and control of a motor vehicle if the person has the ability to set the vehicle in motion, or where there is a risk that the person could put the vehicle in motion either on purpose or by accident and become a danger to the public.

If someone is found in the driver’s seat of a motor vehicle, care and control is presumed unless it can be shown that he or she did not occupy that seat for the purpose of setting the vehicle in motion. But, even if the person is not in the driver’s seat (ex: sitting in the passenger’s seat), if it is proven that he or she was using the motor vehicle in such a way that it may be set in motion, that person may still be found to be in care and control. So, there is a danger of being found guilty even if a person is just sleeping in a motor vehicle. It may even be possible to find someone in care and control of a motor vehicle who is simply near the motor vehicle and has the ability to set it into motion.

 

I had them turned to accessory to listen to music. Unfortunately the punishment for guilty is same as full blown DUI punishment.

 

I think it's one all over the US... One of my kids got a DUI just for having his keys in the door of his car. He was trying to get his wallet to pay for a cab.

 

Thats insane, I hope he beat it. This whole thing is such bullshit.

 

Had a friend get nailed for OWI because he was passed out in the drivers seat with no keys in the car. The law in Iowa says that if you have Intent to drive intoxicated then you are guilty. They said he would have driven if he had the keys, therefore showing intent. He tried to fight it and still lost. If he had been in the passenger seat or back seat he would have been fine, but by being in the drivers seat he got fucked.

 

In NJ keys in the car anywhere and your booked.

To date in NJ only one case has been successfully defended and that guy had his car running in the bar parking lot and was sleeping. The only reason he got off was due to the winter temp being below freezing. He claimed he needed to have the heat on to survive the night.

Good luck Dino poop!

 

Agreed. I don't think that me getting into my car after drinking should be an instant DUI. But what are they going to do now that you don't have to have your keys in the ignition on a lot of cars to drive? Erica's Jeep is push button. No keys needed.

He was found guilty. Lost license for a year, lost a stripe and was kicked out 2 years later when they did force shaping.

 

Too bad the law wasnt formed using comon sense

 

care and control reminds me of this\/\/\/

A man and his wife go to their weekend getaway in the mountains where the husband likes to fish and the wife likes to read
the husband came home early one day from fishing and went to bed
the wife decided now would be her chance to go out on the boat and read
so she did
she didn't know the lake very well so she just layed anchor anywhere and began to read
along came a officer and told her "what are you doing?"
"reading" said the woman
"this is a restricted fishing area"
"but i'm not fishing"
"that may be true but you have all of the equipment so i will have to take you in"
"if you do that i will charge you with rape" the woman says
"but i didn' touch you"
"this may be true but you have all of the right equipment"
