Is the hospital required to report BAC to DMV in CT? Should I be expecting a notice? Police report says nothing about alcohol, and officer did not do a breath test @ hospital, just made my eyes follow his finger. Only hospital knew I was drunk. Do they tell anyone? Does officer call for a BAC after the fact? Hospital report has alcohol intoxication all over it though. Did I luck out? thank you.

I arrived home at aprox. 12:30 AM after a bar tending shift to see two police cruisers blocking the driveway to my home and the next driveway. I got out of the car and spoke to one of the officers who refused to tell me what was happening. He then said he smelt alcohol and did a field sobriety test out of the line of sight of any cameras, said I failed, arrested me for DUI and towed my car. The breathalyzer failed multiple times at the police station. I was forced to take a urine test. After two months of waiting the results were an adjusted BAC of .03/.04.

Your insurance company is going to find out the truth regardless of what you tell them.

We had a lawyer the first time, but we can't afford one this time. We just want to know what to expect when we go to court.

They can violate your probation and give you more jail time then the 120 days mandatory minimum you are looking at as a...
