My friend had given me permission to drive us back home from a party...we were both drunk..she gave me permission to drive her car, obviously a big mistake which I regret making..while turning on a street we were hit by a taxi cab..he had the right a-way..I was issued a DUI..the taxi driver wasn't hurt..we had very minor injuries..a few scratches and chest pain. I then come to find out my friend did not have insurance on her car..or a valid registration...will I be responsible for all this other mess? I wasnt taken to jail..just issued a DUI ticket...her car got impounded and now she's blaming me for wrecking her car....even though she allowed me to drive it..KNOWING i was drunk ?? I was cited a 23152(A)...what are the penalties for all this mess?

You need an affordable attorney, what state are you in I might be able to help.
Get a public defender when you go to court.
The car being in her name she bears half the responsibility in all of this. They have these cases on Judge Joe Brown all the time. Someone has to get out of impound before the fee’s continue to accrue, in some cases the people cannot afford it and the impound company becomes the owner of the car so get the car out of impound first. Both you girls are at fault!
Ok since it is a punishable offense , you have to face the consequences. For getting free advice on your defense you can get free outlines on http://www.outlinesumo.com
