Flying Lawyer,

thanks for that.

Perhaps I shouldnt be, but I am begining to feel a tad sorry for this chap.

Having been breathalysed in the past following a minor road prang, I was informed there and then that had I been positive, I would have been dealt with swiftly and the appropriate court action would have taken place within a week or so.

What's the difference here? I ask because I genuinely can't see the difference, I would have thought regardless of nationality, you could be refused police bail if there was a cahnce you may not turn up in court.
