...He may not have had an accident yet, but his conduct was still reckless and put other people’s lives at risk.

And I'll bet he didn't have his seat belt on either, that nasty old guy. Let's fine him for that too. And see if you can't get him for mis-matched socks, too, while you are at it, which you are. You should understand that using a broad brush mostly causes more problems than it fixes. Look at the guys record, he was not some drunk. What I want to say to you is to use your own mind and not mindlessly parrot the crap that has been poured into you head by our government schools.

If he was over the limit he was putting other people’s lives at risk.

I know I’ve seen people that get behind the wheel stone cold sober, and have absolutely zero business on the road, and I’ve seen people put down a 12 pack and drive perfectly fine.

I’ve also seen seasoned drinkers get out of cars unable to stand up let alone walk a straight line. Didn’t even know where they were, where they were going...had no idea what was going on!

The problem is the police can’t possibly judge a person’s tolerance or that magical point where a seasoned drinker has had too much and might pass out behind the wheel, once they pull off, let alone some way to test each person individually.

I’ve seen gals who have no business on the road sober then have a drink or two and become flat out LETHAL!

So I don’t know how there’s a way to police all the differrent scenarios and it seems psychtotic to just wait until somebody has an accident!
