Did I get busted? Need advice

Just keep an eye on the mail and intercept anything that comes and hopefully you can keep it on the DL.

I see no reason why the cops would bother you again, unless you get a ticket, but you'd think they would have issued that at the time. It'd be kind of odd to give you a ticket after it happened.

You see, there is a lot of paperwork to do for even issuing tickets. Even speeding tickets and broken tailight tickets. If you get a fine, it has to be recorded and that goes through several steps.

So the way I see it, I can't the cops even bothering to write up a report on what happened.

As for the ambulance, have fun explaining that hefty bill if you don't have health coverage.

Good luck!

A lot of the times..cops will tell you that kind of shit, to get you scared..hopefully scare you straight. LOL

but yeah, those ambulance bills can get pretty costly...I had one once for over $ 500 and that was 15 years ago.

I would call them and ask a few hypothetical questions, just to see. If so, you got some money to be earning.. cause those ambulace companies will hunt your ass down (collections) till they get their cash..

I can't say forr sure if you will or not as I'm not the officer.

I'm just saying that usually when you get a ticket for that, you get one written to you right then and there. Mailing you a ticket a day, 3 days, or a week after it happened doesn't sound right to me.

If you do get one though, it should come in the mail, so just keep an eye on the mailbox for the next little while.

As for ambulance, if you do not have health coverage covered under your parents name, you will have to pay for it, and if you are in the US, I hear a ride just to your house for the ambulance, is not cheap, and last I hear it was $1000, just to your home.

well, thanks for all the help, honestly, I'm not worried about the money, I'm an adult, own my house, and have a great job, I'm just worried about anything on the record with the police, and anything my wife might see.

If you get a ticket, it will not go on your record.

The only time anything goes on your record is if you were arrested, as in put in handcuffs and taken to the cop shop.

I have gotten a few alcohol related, drunk charges (not driving) tickets. I got like 4 of them in life, and none of them went on my record at all.

I still have 1 from like 4 years ago I haven't paid. I got pulled over once or twice since then, they check my record, and it comes back clean.

All in all, you have nothing to worry about going on your record. Tickets and fines are different than charges.

Thanks NoChowder, glad you could all enjoy my stupidity, lol. that's just crazy man, calling on myself, COME ON! I was on the phone with my buddy when I was stoned, he left his house for 5 minutes, and before he could get back I'd turned myself in, JEEZ this stuff is crazy!
