Do not, no matter how down you feel, agree to a felony charge (even a deferred). In this case, you will likely do some time in a county jail. You will liklely be prohibited from driving in any state for a long time. No, a felony driving charge should not even be brought (no less pleaded to). You can work a deal. Get a lawyer or public defender. Do not communicate your feelings to a DA until you talk to a defense lawyer/public defender. THIS IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE. YOU WOULD NEED TO DO MORE TO ESTABLISH A LAWYER-CLIENT RELATIONSHIP WITH THIS FIRM.
