[QUOTE="jlm961, post: 14944475, member: 171732"] Yep. Resisting arrest is almost always never going to end well. I got hauled in one night for a suspected DWI and proceeded to blow a .06 when the legal limit was .08. Just had a few beers with the boys after work, nothing stupid. Yet I was still held overnight and treated basically like a criminal then handed a ticket before I left the next morning because the arresting officer felt that I was impaired and made up some bs that I was swerving all over the place. $400 later I got out of the ticket via my lawyer but he even told me that law enforcement can arrest and hold you for up to 24 hours with no charges filed for nothing more than "reasonable suspicion" which could amount to almost any type of conjured up crap. IMHO it's best to just keep it civil, don't say anything that might incriminate yourself and let the lawyers hatch it out later. It was better to spend a night in jail than to wind up in more s*** to prove a point. After that the cops in that town knew my vehicle and I never got jacked with again by anybody. That was like 8 years ago. [/QUOTE]
