Speeding and other criminal offences / Re: Drink and Drive 57 mg

On a separate note, I spoke to person today and she said that I should have refused to police to do breath test and asked for blood test.
She did that once and police did blood test but to  get appointment for blood test it took more than 4 hours and her reading was low. So her offence was smoking and littering on highway. Is that true? Will it work?

All done in court now. Big thanks to this forum for all help and guidance.

15 months ban reducing to 11 months if I complete the course.
Fine around 500£

Duty solicitor was there to guide me.

And duty solicitor said criminal record will be there for 12 months and in police history for very long period.

Thank you.
I will be going in public transport to court or will ask my buddy to drop off.
I will be alone and check if duty Sollicitor is available to guide or help me. If not I am on my own.
All the points mentioned here in this foru
 are fair. Thank you.

Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

I genuinely I regret my decision to drive after drinks. Learned my lesson.

Thank you.
I will be going alone and first time to court as well. My hearing is on 7th Jan 10am. I am planning to reach by 9am, I am taking my DL, charge sheet and completed MC100 form.
Should I take a buddy? Anything else should I be aware of? I will dress up appropriately (formal wear).
I am taking a small write up quoting that” it was my misjudgement to drive after drink and I please guilty at first instance. I am deeply regretting my decision to drive after drinks. I am ready to take course if offered and I will never repeat this or any sort of unlawful behaviour “

Plea* guilty

I was given in hand when sergeant asked me leave the station. The charge sheet has court hearing date and time.

Thank you. Looks like typo on my address on charge sheet (neighbours door number was mentioned). I had received any communication yet from court yet. I have checked with my neighbour and no mail to my name yet. Should I print M100 form and keep it ready?

This forum is really a life saver for me. To be honest. I was never been this situation before and very nervous being first timer.

Also, can I plea guilty earlier than my hearing date? Will that help to reduce ban? Or any consideration?if I can plea early, what should I do?

Also, can I plea guilty earlier than my scheduling hearing? Will that reflect any good on me? If I can do, how to do?

Also, can I plea guilty earlier than the court hearing date? Does that help me to reduce the length of ban?

Thank you.
How to do present my financial situation for fine?
Also, can I tell court that I can do volunteering service to court during weekends not impacting my day job?
Should I prepare a written note on my plea? And read / present to judge?

Any other way that driving ban could be reduced?
No aggregation, I was alone in car, no reckless driving, charge sheet mentions that my reading was 57mg. There is nothing else mentioned.
