What to do if I got a MIP and on my citation it said I had consumed alcohol?
Last night I was with 2 friends who were drinking, we got pulled over in my friend’s car and she was driving. She was breathalyzed but neither of me and my friend were. The one breathalyzed is 17; me and the other friend are 18. Also, 2 bottles were found, both pretty much empty and only one that we drank from that day the other from a different night from my friend. Neither of the bottles were mine and I had only like 1 drink of Long Island ice tea. I also have 2 prior DWI’s and was wondering if thee is a way to beat this or get out of this, so I don’t have to go to jail? I’m wondering if it’s possible because the bottles were not mine.
