I was out drinking with a buddy of mine and I got really drunk. The plan was I was going to crash at his place because his roommate was gone andi would sleep in his room. But it took a weird turn I don't even remember gettingin my car just getting arrested, and they gave me resisting as well can I fight this or is there no help for me? Wishing my drunk wasn't so dumb!

I don't know how you would fight something that you don't remember; let alone you don't know if it was true. If you blacked out, you were definitely too intoxicated to be driving. Is this your first black out? You may want counsel to represent you, they may find a loop hole.

Wow. That's a tough one. Seems you needed to be pulled over. You def. need a DUI lawyer (http://www.trafficticketjustice.com).

Admitting you don't remember the pull over and you were drunk to boot - I don't see any sort of defense for that or a loophole either. You'd be chewed up by the judge and probably sent to some sort of evaluation above and beyond what is normally required since you seem to be having black outs. Would suggest that you stop drinking before you really hurt/kill someone with a car during one of your black outs. You (and everyone else) were lucky that you were pulled over before you could injure/kill someone while drunk. If anything, I'd thank the cop who did pull you over.
