started out great. had a date with a girl ive been talking to for a while. took her to dinner, went mini golfing and went and raced some go karts, so we had a good night, i go to drop her off at home. i leave to head to my house and i gotta take 94 makes it faster n easier, anyway, i'm going all of a sudden bambi wanted to be in my lane, and doing 75 i couldnt try to swerve to miss it i would of been in alot more danger, so i hit it, anyway the airbag hit me in the face i black out and end up taking out a concrete barrier @ 70 mph, (estimated, i dunno how fast i was going i was blacked out) totalled my 2001 blazer, and now looks like i'll be riding my pedal bike 30 miles for work, because as if that wasnt enough, the cop decided i should get a careless driving ticket, because i did end up off the road way after the airbag knocked out me, oh and i got a ticket for possession of marijuana even though i have my medical card. so figure, so now my license will be suspended, totalled my new truck that i still owed money on, and lost my stash, what a horrible, horrible night. atleast noone was hurt.. except a black eye from the bag.
sorry, didnt know where else to rant and i figured people around here would know what i went though.
Not sure what to tell ya on the ticket for possession of marijuana, you could fight it as long as you DO have all proper documentation. As far as the careless driving, personally, if it were me, I would fight it. Reminds me of the two officers that arrested a guy for drunk driving after he had smashed into a pole. Cant remember for sure but he had blood sugar problems or a stroke one. They threw him in the back of the cruiser and he ended up dieing. Happened in Charlotte or Eaton Rapids around 5-6 years ago.
that sucks man
BUMMER!

as long as he didnt have more then 2.5oz it doesnt matter...
i only had about 3 grams, nothing crazy, i am legit holder for chronic back pain, went to the courts today, ended up dropping that one, but stuck with the careless driving, which i am going to further fight, and yeah it was an expensive date night, lookin at about 5000 dollars, and thankfully i dropped her off before i went on my way. would of been horrible if anyone else was with me, and the possession was for "the smoke apparatus" that i had. which i found to be bull. so did the judge i saw this morning, atleast i'm alive, 2 black eyes from the air bag, but i'm good.
edit-- 475 dollar tow bill. niceee

They have to clean up the road too, get the deer off to the side, etc... - still seems like alot, dont it? How far did they have to tow it? Tell the court to charge deer with Jaywalking!!! Careless drivin p00 Im so sick of the "system" ==censor
lol, woody i do believe a second date is in the works, i'm a bit sore right now though, lol
and the bill seems excessive because i had them leave it at their lot over night.95 for outside unsecure storage lol 125 for hook fee x2 then the rest was mileage which was about 15 miles all together. lol
all in all, it was alright, i pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor and presented them with all my documentation, i still got a possession of controlled substance for having a vicodin in my glove box, but it didnt matter, its a few months probation.
Few months probation my butt.....at least a year, and drug tests and councelling. Which means no more weed, cause you'll b taking a court ordered drug test and if u fail it jail time. (marijuana is illegal under federal law)
except i wasnt tried in a federal court, i was tried in a state court which does note medical marijuana as legal, and actually i got off with no probation since i was able to show them the paper work, now if this would of been a federal circuit court i would of been in more problem. and they threw the vicodin out since a few months back i was on a prescription for it when i fell off a roof, told them it must of been in there since then.
which means... i can smoke any time i want.
state judges follow state laws, federal judges follow federal laws.
also blazin, first offense you can plead 7411, which its normal punishment is 6 months UNSUPERVISED probation, and about 300 dollars in fines, and unsupervised meaning no drops, just cant get in trouble for 6 months. i even used a court appointed attorney for this.
as far as the deer, wish you could sue the state.. its their deer...
Air bags suck.. perfect example
ticketed for marijuana, I'd fight it but be carefull, marijuana is still federally illegal so they can and do still walk in arrest you and put you in federal prison for possession whether you have the state card or not.
I read this over a couple times probably missed it somewhere but wont your insurance pay for damages and towing? You said it wasnt paid off yet so that means you had to have full coverage right?
I had a 7411 and was on probation for a year, supervised. But it was b4 medical use was legal. But when on probation yer order will state not to break ANY laws, which means fedaral also, which would mean no smokey smoke. And 7411 just takes it off yer record when yer done with probation, and only good once (usually). And good thing that u had a perscriprion for the vicodin.
i spoke to the judge about it, (medical marijuana) and he said it since i had all the documentation for it, he would allow me to still smoke, since i do have a viable reason for having it, it controls my depression (was hooked on xanax for over 2 years, the withdrawls were horrible and the doctor told me to try marijuana) so the judge sees that as being okay and is in my record, i think thats why i got unsupervised because they didnt wanna make me drop anyway, and maybe the different counties we live in make a big difference, some judges are nice, others not so much.
yeah the vicodin were stupidly not in the bottle, they were just in a baggy, but i did have the script for them and they were actually legit too, not ones that i bought and just still had the old perscription i had for them.
but i think the fact that i had my legal card is what made the diffence in the out come of our cases.
lilred: the person i owed money on it was my brother n he wasnt wasnt concerned with me having full coverage on it as he knew he would get his money either way.
summary: since everything was legit, friday afternoon, i was sentenced to 6 months Unsupervised probation, no drops, and ordered to take a BDIC class to keep the 2 points off my license, the probation the judge said was just to ensure that i didnt make any trouble, and he doesnt wanna see me back in there otherwise it would be handled like a federal case ect ect, he said as much as he doesnt agree with mi medical marijuana, he has to rule as if it law, since it is the law in michigan. but one more mistake on my part and it will be federal not state, meaning not so lucky.
The moral of this story is do not keep party favors of any sort in your vehicle ;D
unless you got proper documentation! :)
Um......... or at all loll or in a "private" place loll
my truck is private damn it. the state didnt pay for it! lol :)) sorry just a little sarcasm. i do understand though, but really not much they could do about any of it, all dismissed, imma free man and no record, still lol
