Pulled Over after Drinking and Driving

05-16-09, 10:16 AM

Out of curiosity, how exactly does one "PROVE that I was not breaking any laws"? You mean by taking the test? Millions of people have to take the test and if they are sober they go about their way. Imagine if there was no testing, sheet would be totally out of control on the roads.

I have extremely little sympathy for drunk drivers, or people driving while nearly over the limit.

Aramike, dude, sleep off the hangover and think again. Hard. Below is a link with pictures of drunk driver accidents. I suggest you take a look.

Wow This needs to be plastered all over the place.

What kind of punishment would be justified against this drunk driver?

In the UK this would be causing grevious bodily harm (GBH) with intent while driving under the influence and dangerous driving you would be looking at 4 to 8 years inside and your licence endorsed heavily if you ever get it back from the minimum obligatory ten year ban.

Heh, I've never met anyone who gets a hangover at .06 BAC. Not even the biggest lightweight in the world. There's more effect in a dose of Nyquil.

Moreso, if there was no arbitrary testing on the roads (which is what I'm against; not testing, but random testing) then we'd have more available officers to arrest actual dangerous drivers.

But you should also know that what is ok for you could be completely differetn for someone else. I know a few peoploe who after 2 beers I wouldn't let in a kids push cart let alone a car.
