Hi
I was recently in a car accident where the driver of the other car was arrested for failing to give a breathalyser test (v obviously drunk). When I was giving my statement the Garda told me it was unlikely I would have to go to court as I hadn’t seen it. V dark and car came from behind. There were other witnesses who would be called.

How can I find out what happens to them? How long does a drink driving case take to go to court?
Thanks

Try the legal discussion forum instead:

but any kind of legal advice specific to your case can't be allowed on the site.

There's nothing that I'm aware of that blocks new users from posting there. Are you seeing an error message?
