Question: What should I do if police want to question me?
Question Detail: I had an accident leaving a golf course, while answering my phone. I veered off the road and hit some decorative stone pretty hard, causing my truck to die and it would not restart. There was no damage except to the truck. I pushed the truck off of the road, left a note with my phone number and got a ride home. Someone saw me and called the police. The police called me and asked me to come back because they thought I had been drinking. I did not get the call until after I was at home, it was late, so I told them I hadn't done anything wrong and was going to bed. They impounded my car, and want to talk to me. What should I do?
Simple but effective advise: Do Not Talk to the Police until you have consulted with a lawyer! The only reason the police wish to talk with you is to determine whether a crime or infraction has been committed. If you cannot speak to an attorney politely decline the police officer’s request. Again, do not speak to the police as there is no obligation for you to do so.
