I got funneled into a DUI checkpoint a couple nights before Christmas. I was out with my friend and had just come from Walnut Creek, CA after having a Mai Tai, 1 shot of Jeger, and half a Bud Light over approx 3 hours with dinner. I felt fine to drive, so we left the restaurant at about 1:10am. After a barrage of road-side tests, which I passed. The officer requested that I take a breath test. The machine said I blew a 1.0 which I was astonished at. CA is .08 max so they placed me under arrest and asked that I call somebody to come pick me up.
Okay it’s been over a month now, I contested the suspension of my license through DMV by mail. A woman in Oakland with their office told me that they would be calling me in early February. This was a couple weeks ago. Today, Saturday Jan 24th, I got a new license in the mail. Not a new expiration date, just a new copy of my old license.
I’m going to call on Monday and see what this means, but has anybody ever had a stay of suspension where they just send your license with no description or paperwork?
