Local Planning Notes
Shelburne impaired driving defence should account for longer driving distances, licence suspension, vehicle impoundment, testing timelines, insurance consequences, employment driving, and family transportation needs.
The route and stop details should be noted
Weather, lighting, road conditions, timing, driving observations, demand wording, and counsel access can matter later.
Employment driving may be important
Clients who need a vehicle for work should gather employment documents and get advice before making assumptions.
