- 24hr licence suspension is normal for that scenario
- there is no "print out" of a BAC from a roadside test and you do only blow once
- being below a "G" limit as you mention means nothing, what is relevant is the BAC for the particular class of licence you hold at the time of the stop

Re: Underglow Lighting
IMHO I would not put red lights underneath, if anyone can see them from say a hydro pole away, I would suggest that is casting light forward, if there happens to be a puddle, wet surface or our infamous snow also reflects light very well.

some of us on here can decipher notes very well, you can scan and add it we can most likely tell you what it means and will clear up the situation. just remove and/or blank out licence plate/your info and officer ID

Interesting. Ive also seen apps where you mount your phone to the windshield so that it will record your driving in real time with the GPS speed superimposed. Mix that with the OBD2 data and I think youd have a pretty good argument. Of course the difficulty would be explaining the technology to the Courts and getting it admitted.
