I don't know what state you live in but in California ALL DUI's are reported to the BRN. This is due to the increased use of computers and all offenses pass through the California board.
If you think you may have a problem with alcohol, you probably do. You may want to check and see what options your state board offers.

Good luck!

I am up on charges for a DUI although I wasn't drinking, nor did I hit/hurt anything ( they thought I was weaving; it was grad night & I was picking my daughter up so she wouldn't run the chance of a drunk driving accident or something.) Talk about irony. I did have prescribed RX in my blood stream ( I have Musc. Dystrophy and chronic back issues for which I just had surgery.)
My lawyer thinks I should fight it i.e. go to trial, because 1. I have no prev. record 2. I have stacks of documents from numerous specialists which discuss my leg weakness and inability to stand on one leg. 3. Because of the dermatomyositis my balance has been affected for the last few years.
I am very very scared about losing my liscence ( California BRN ) or being forced to do a four year recovery program and having my liscence suspended and it being on my record.

The reality is I have worked as a diabetes educator for the last two years while having to rely on prn rx; commuting to work, etc. I had this disc replacement surgery so that I can continue my career which I love. Does anyone have any insights?
Does the BRN look poorly upon someone who fights DUIs? should I not fight it and risk the DUI?

They will find you. Took some time but they found me. I'm working and awaiting their decision.
