| Description of the problem | I was driving late friday night (11/14)/early saturday morning (11/15) to waterford, wi from palmyra, wi and my vehicle shut off causing me to become startled, which then caused me to deviate from my lane and then was pulled over by a town of mukwonago police officer. I could have killed someone if oncoming traffic was involved! I then received a ticket for unsafe lane deviation and was taken to waukesha county jail under the assumption that i was drinking and driving after i attempted to show the officer the recall for my vehicle. Pending my court date, i could receive a possible owi charge. I am very upset about this because that is an $800 fine and will also cause my insurance premium to increase. |
