And it’s all over. A few people have reached out to ask, so I figured it would be best and safe to simply create an update. Now that it’s over.

I asked the mods to delete the last thread based of the slew of legal suggestions of some. And I’m grateful for those that had my best wishes in mind. But as I understand it, it was my attitude that helped create this outcome.

I won’t go into detail as to what happened because I don’t know enough to know if this thread could also be potentially damaging. I don’t think so, but I don’t know.

I’ll just say I’m incredibly lucky. First, that nothing bad happened. Lesson learned without any true pain. Second, as even my attorney claimed, this outcome is basically miraculous.

4 points and a fine of $418. Two tickets dismissed and two severely reduced. I’ll be taking a safe driving course this weekend.

Again, lesson learned. I’ll be driving the in the right lane going forward. On so many levels I got lucky. Truly, in life in general, I’m a super lucky guy. This could have been bad in so many ways.

I won’t look this gift horse in the mouth. And I won’t put myself, my family or anyone else in this position ever again.

Thanks again to all those that were polite and nice while that thread lived. And thanks to Ken for closing it upon my request.

And lastly if anyone ever finds themselves in a similar position, I’d strongly suggest hiring the public defender.
