This same exact thing happened to a friend of mine, only he was literally 20 feet from the dorm entrance when the cops stopped him. I had to go bail him out later that night, and he got a $100 fine, that's all. If I were you, I'd fight it. I was in a rear-end accident recently, and had to go to court for my citation (Assured Clear Distance) just yesterday. Both the cop and the other driver didn't show up, so the ticket was dismissed, I saved $100 and it won't go on my record. I hope that you get that lucky. That is a law that I really really hate anyway. I would much much much much rather have someone who was drinking walk home than drive. What are you gonna do on the sidewalk? Bump into someone? Fall down? It sure beats having a terrible accident, paying DUI fines, and possibly living with the fact that you killed someone by driving drunk. I applaud your punk in drublic actions, and thank you for staying on the sidewalk and not behind the wheel. Hell, if I had a sweet bar close to my dorm, I'd be there almost every night drinking it up and walking home, not a care in the world. Stay safe man, and good luck. Enough of my incoherent rambling.
