3rd conviction; first was a DUI i heard there is a minimum 30 day sentence. Curious if there is any loopholes or alternatives to going to jail. No negative slap-on-the-hand answers please.
Ok so dec 2007 i got the speeding 50 over charge. In ontario its considered stunt driving. I just got convincted yesterday to a charge of 49 over and 4 demerit points. My lawyer informd me that my points get erased from my drivers abstract 2 years after the offence date. That will be this december.
My question is…
1. the insurance wont find out that i have this on my record unless they look at it right? How often do companies do this?
2. if i make it to december without my insurance going up, and my points get erased from my drivers abstract is there someway the insurance company can still find out and shoot my insurance up?
Thank you 10 easy points for best answer. Someone who works in insurance perferably.
No in ontario you accumulate points. I dont want to contact my insurance company becuase it will give them a heads up to look into my file. And i dont want that. In ontario your demerit points come off 2 years after the OFFENCE date. Not conviction.
In dec,2007 i got a DWI on my regular license since then i have not went to court yet to face the charges but have since finish truck driving school and got my CDL license. Will a conviction hurt me getting a job even if i got the dwi with my regular license?
I have a misdemeanor DUI conviction from age 19. I am now 24. I want to volunteer at a children’s hospital but the app says they reserve the right to deny people based on their criminal record. Furthermore, could I ever get a job working at a hospital? I hope to go to grad school to be a P.T. I’m depressed about this because I feel like this conviction is the one thing holding me back. I have excellent grades, references, etc.
So one mistake at 19 and I can never get a good job?
Does it go on at time of dui or after the conviction
How long does convictons of speeding stay on your record?
The conviction date is: 6/10/2004 with three points.
Also I have a "Disobeyed traffic Device" convicted on 5/27/2005 with two points. That is it. My driving record is clean after that, no acidents, no DWI, etc.
In Feb. I was convicted of a DWI in Mt. Laurel, NJ after blowing a .13 on the Alcotest, which has recently ruled reliable. My attorney put a "stay" on my conviction until the Alcotest ruling came out. Does anyone know how the courts will go about handling the large backflow of people who have DWI’s?? If anyone has knowledge of this I’d really appreciate their input…
I was in Iowa and was pulled over for being too close to a semi, my friend was smoking pot. The cop smelled it and asked if we had pot, I said yes and gave it all up. He made me throw it away in a field, along with the pipe and basically let us go with a traffic fine and let us go our way, I was never detained or arrested. Few months later I enlisted for the army back in NJ and completely forgot about the incident. Now few years later I found out my drivers license is supended, so I decided to get a report of my driving history and I says I have a DUI, and I have no idea what to do now, someone please help.
Aren’t you suppose to be arrested when you have a DUI? and the cop also said he will let us off the hook and let us go with a minor traffic fine. If the cop thought I was under the influence why would he let me go and get behind a wheel, I was driving back to NJ that day BTW.
this is my report
VIOLATION DATE:JUN 21 2003
VIOLATION:VEHICLE CODE: 3731 MAJOR VIOLATION
DESCRIPTION:DRIVING UNDER INFLUENCE
CONVICTION DATE:SEP 09 2003 ???
ACTION:SUSP DRVR LIC COMPACT FOR 1 YEAR(S) EFFECTIVE JAN 14 2004
OFFICIAL NOTICE MAILED DEC 10 2003
Would be Conviction be under the Motor Vehical Act, OR the Criminal Code?
I also paid for a nationwide warrant search just now and it came up with no records, EVER! This is driving me crazy!
I have been doing some research.
I know that you have heard about people being convicted multiple times of drunk driving. Do you know that 17,000 people are killed and 500,000 people are injured. every year by drunk drivers.
The only time these drivers go to jail is when they kill someone.
If they are convicted, of simply injuring someone, all that happens is their license is suspended. So next time they drink and drive, they do it without a license.
If caught, they get a conviction of driving without a license, and dwi, then released.
As a former EMT, I would get very irritated when running a drunk driving accidents, and the drunk driver would be out walking around, and I would have to treat innocent people, even kids that this driver struck. The police would do their sobriety tests, and arrest them for dwi/dui Then a few weeks later, the same incident, with the same person.
Can someone explain to me why, a person has to be killed to put theses people in jail?
.
I know the prisons, and jails are overcrowded. But there has to be a solution to this problem.
Any comments ideas welcome.
Any law enforcement, lawyers, and judge’s etrc. that can explain why people can be convicted over, and over of DWI,dui etc. and put back on the road?
Please feel free to e-mail me.
I am not really looking for an "answer". I want to know what others think. I would love a judge, lawyer etc. explain this.
I posted this in the law section.
Buy I only got 4 answers.
hopeing for more opinions.
I have a dwi awhile back and i need to go back and get my case number and conviction date and what not, is there a website i can go to check on my status’s on a case thats free! no charge or credit card etc?
