Good

As someone who has lost many friends and family members to preventable accidents, I have one word for this:

Outrageous.

I’m truly sorry for your loss. I am sure it was a horrible thing to go through.

However, that does not give anyone the right to tell me I can not hesitate at a light, or not drive the speed limit if I am not comfortable with it even though I have not been drinking. This policy of “signs” of impaired driving for reporting purposes tells me both Hillsborough County and MADD are encouraging to people to drive in ways they normally wouldn’t in order to avoid being pulled over or otherwise scrutinized.

As someone who had a sister that was an alcoholic - I say good too. It was unbelievable how they would slap her on the wrist practically each time. For awhile she still had a car but no license. We had her neighbors and friends call the police when they would see her drive away. Of course the cops were always too busy. I’m just glad that she never killed anyone - except herself from alcohol-related diesease.

As someone who has lost many relatives in our fights for freedom, I have one word for this petty form of prohibitionism:
Bad
