why should we care about some guy in another country doing stupid stuff ?

[EEGator]

That’s impressive.

Broadhurst was arrested again at 10.45am and again tested positive for cocaine

And also Qanon material was found on his computer, his phone and in his pockets.

BAC 16x over the legal limit? This guy must be immune to the common cold. Nothing could live in that blood stream.

guy took the whole, “if you’re gonna screw up, screw up big time”, to heart

[Flick Lives]

However the night before the current offences he had “consumed a large quantity of cocaine” - something the advocate said was unusual for the defendant - had then had decided to drive to work rather than lose the job.

Back in the 70’s my best friend could not control his drinking and ended up with a dozen DUIs, never went to jail but was on court ordered Antabuse for a while. He cleaned up for a few years but fell hard off the wagon and didn’t make it to 50.

[Disambiguator]

So he was going 1000 miles per hour?

[Repeal The 17th]

Poorly written headline alert!
From the article:
“...blood tests showed ... cocaine ... almost 16 times the legal limit ...”

[Nateman]

...the main metabolite made when the body breaks down cocaine - per litre of blood, almost 16 times the legal limit of 50 micrograms.

A legal limit for the amount of cocaine?

[Gena Bukin]

The court heard the results of the blood tests showed that the first sample contained not less than 788 micrograms of benzoylecgonine - the main metabolite made when the body breaks down cocaine - per litre of blood, almost 16 times the legal limit of 50 micrograms.

So what does this mean? Is 50 micrograms the amount of cocaine you might have in your body after handling money and 16 times this is the amount you'd have after snorting a couple of lines? Or are we talking Scarface amounts of blow here?

[AFreeBird]

How they catch him if he was doing 1600 MPH?

[Chode]

that’s 16X the legal limit, for COCAINE??? so 49mcg is
OK though... WTH?

Man caught driving 16 times over the legal limit got back in his car after police released him

That musta been like some kinda land speed record in a high-performance machine.

[Mr. Jeeves]

Man caught driving 16 times over the legal limit...

That must be like...800 miles per hour? :)

[fedupjohn]

I blew a 0.21 in 1992. Got picked up when they were done with me. Picked my car and drove home.

[beethovenfan]

Let’s see - if the legal limit was 30, he must have been going 480 mph!!

[BobL]

“Man caught driving 16 times over the legal limit”

My (many) cars would struggle to meet this standard if the speed limit was over 5 MPH.

[Bikkuri]

I didn’t know there was a legal limit for coke..
