Word on the street is that drunken democrats are blocking this legislation. The students are afraid to name names.

The students are afraid to name names.

As well they should be.

Picture Harry Reid having a senator arrested on trumped up drunken driving charges, resulting in him being detained long enough to miss a crucial Senate vote.

There is a reason why we have these immunities.

Yes, drunk driving is bad. So is tyranny.

Wish someone would tell this kid that this not an scheme so legislators can drive drunk but to keep some one in power from arresting opponents on fake, suspicion of drunk driving, as to keep them voting against certain bills.

Even though we know that couldn't happen cause that would be like the IRS investigating the TEA party, no never happens.

Didn’t a Kennedy get off of a DWI charge by claiming he was driving to a late night session?

Question:
If the U.S.A. Constitution’s 5th amendment allows you to not incriminate yourself before trial ,,,, then how do the states seem to void this provision for DWI’s and DUI’s . Can states suspend your USA Constitutional rights ??? A field sobriety test is just that , and in many state cases will result in an automatic suspension or revocation of your right to a fair trial and your license privilege .

I’ve often wondered how this works .

Dwi is a violation of the law. You are even subjected to random dwi chekpoints.
Real issue is to keep your drunken or pot enhanced butts off the road.
