Character and Fitness Addendum
• In the summer of 2006, I was issued a citation for Failure to Maintain Lane in (CITY, STATE). I lost control of my vehicle on a wet road, hydroplaned, and slid into a ditch. I did not contest, and paid the fine, therefore completing all requirements for this misdemeanor.
• On December 5th, 2006, I was arrested for Minor in Possession of Marijuana, in (City, State). After successfully completing six months of reporting probation, passing random urinalysis screenings, and paying a fine of $843.00, my charge was expunged from my record. It was the first and last time I consumed any sort of illegal drug, and I have been definitively drug free for the past six years.
• On May 17th, 2007, I was issued a misdemeanor citation for speeding, in (CITY, STATE). I have completed all requirements associated with this charge.
• On December 12, 2007, I was arrested for DUI and Failure to Maintain Lane in (CITY, STATE), citation number XXXXX. After being arrested, I enrolled myself into a defensive driving course on my own accord, which I completed. When I appeared in court, I was given the opportunity to plead guilty to reckless driving, and paid a fine of $ 1,271.00. Aside from the judicial fines, I was also forced to appear before the Student Judicial Board at my university. I completed an online alcohol education program as well as forty hours of community service. All of the requirements associated with my offense have been successfully completed.
o Looking back, being arrested for DUI is the most shameful and dishonorable experience of my life. However, it undoubtedly allowed me to recognize my faults and reevaluate my life and actions. Since that time, I have grown and matured as an individual, and I look back at that instance as a painful lesson learned. I no longer see operating a vehicle after consuming alcohol as an option, and if I do not have a safe method home, I abstain from drinking.
I fully realize the severity of my past actions, of which I accept full responsibility. Since 2007, both my criminal and driving history have remained free from any sort of violation or discrepancy whatsoever. After receiving a background check from the (University) Police Department, the document stated I had a clean record.
