You definitely want to get in touch with a traffic attorney before proceeding any further. The following steps can also help with reducing the stress.
Make a note of the events. Your lawyer will need to know what happened from your perspective, and it’s easy to forget some of the details as the days go by. Having it written down will not only help to keep it fresh in your memory, it will also make it easier when the time comes to discuss your case with your lawyer.
Keep all documentation organized and readily available. From your traffic citation to any police reports or related receipts you may have, these can all prove to be vital tools for your lawyer in helping to build a solid defense.
Stay off social media. Remember that anything you post on social media could be used against you. With so many people willing to share details of their personal lives, any pictures or posts may end up as evidence to disprove your defense.
Drive safely. In other words, be responsible and don’t risk another DUI arrest while your current case is pending. Another arrest will not only result in a revocation of your pre-trial release on your pending case, it may also result in further penalties including time in jail.
