Got one back in February, in the pre-trial diversion classes. I feel like they're just nickel and diming me now. I'm easily at over $400 (that I can't afford to spend) now from the program.

How much is the fine if I just went to court and plead guilty? I'd be representing myself as well.

Trying to hide this from your parents? It will be worse when they find out.

shite stays with you a long arse time, can keep you from getting a job.

Like $150 plus court cost. So about $200.

If you go to court it will be on your permanent record. The classes will remove it...

Stick with PTI. You'll be glad you did when you get older.

The pre-trial diversion stuff should be over after $400, right? Why not just complete the requirements? I'm confused as to what you're saying here. How much more money are you looking to spend on pre-trial diversion?

If you're already in PTI, stick with it. A good attorney can wipe that shite out quick.

I got an MIP when I was 20. Nobody gives a shite about it just do the classes and be smarter about drinking.
