My son in law is on the local police force, and they have a squad that does nothing but blood draws and preservation of evidence in DUI cases. Is that where you want your police resources going?
There was nothing wrong with the BAC standards. So they lowered them. Now they are agitating to lower them again. These articles aren't written by accident. It's always about a bigger police state to tell us how to live.
We are drowning in laws. Eventually they will come for you too. I no longer drink, and haven't in many years. I am a recovering alcoholic, but to preach for people to drink responsibly and then jail them for doing so is vulgar and contemptible. The police commonly pull people over for the flimsiest of reasons. But if they make a stop, they are encouraged to give a ticket. Keep that in mind. My best.
I’m a non drinker that spends a significant part of my friday and saturday evenings driving around drinking friends so that they get home safely.
I also had to drive a former landlord to and from work after he was busted with a DUI.
How hard is it to ask me to give you a lift? Not hard. But he still drove anyways.
I really don’t like this self righteous argument that enforcing drunk driving laws means that bars would shut down, etc. Horse hockey. Call a cab. Get a friend to drive you home. Seriously. If you’d been drinking and I didn’t know you and I was at a bar with you, I’d insist on driving you home.
