Police say I failed the field sobriety test.

I know, I know....don't drink and drive!!!!

I already contacted my attorney regarding the charges. I was able to get them to release the dash video for him to review. Can I beat the case against me?

You should dispute this charge against you! Make sure they are fully aware that you accidently slipped and fell!!

Obviously you didn't watch the video carefully. It's clearly the fault of the masking tape.

it's tough to read the numbers on the tape at night, decided to finally use his head for something useful, by marking the spot.

that's a trick test. the tape is specially designed with super adhesive and the cop stuck it to your hand and then simply pulled you to the ground with it. this should be a slam dunk for any decent attorney.

You poor bugger. Been there done that. It is a truly hard lesson to learn. You can try your attorney but you will probably end up contributing to "The Lawyers Full Employment Act". I know you don't want to hear it--------

That was good, but a long way from the humor level of the one where the guy with the cowboy hat recited the alphabet backwards to a female cop. If anyone knows of a link, please post it. It was a great one.
