I have an idea about it: if you imbibe, get someone else to drive. Same for pot or anything else that can cause distraction or impairment.

What about lack of sleep? Aging? As for the thread topic, drinking a couple of drinks and driving is fine for most people.

Wine isn't dangerous. What one does AFTER drinking it might be. But most people can drink it without any problems resulting from it.

I just read somewhere yesterday that scientists now say that 3-4 glasses of wine per day significantly reduces your chances of giving a ****

You ever drink cheap wine?
Nope, only the best, magnum(s) of Baby Duck Champagne

Having been on the cleanup end of more than one drunk driving fatality I am all in favor of the death penalty for drunk driving causing death and much more than a year of no license just for impaired driving.

....but that's only because you're overly emotional

Do people imbibe that? Do they pack it around like a cellphone? But anyways, people can choose not to drive when they are too tired to drive.
Really? Is that something you can avoid like booze or cellphones?

So you are qualified to speak for most people huh? Who says?

Just Ike alcohol, people can choose not to drive when their reaction times become impaired regardless of the cause. Many choose not to.

Says my ability to read. There's a reason there isn't a requirement for zero BAC here. You should read up on it.

I think at age 110 a person should be required to take a road test before any future driving! :)
haha

I think BC requires a yearly testing after a certain age. I may be wrong, though.

Anyone can read in some manner or other. So that means anyone can speak for everyone, according to you.

did you ride the short school bus to school? You do understand that you can google "BAC and impairment"? Has Petros been giving you lessons at looking silly?

haha

Most people with a BAC of 0.08 could pass the test.

Wine is dangerous to the community, for this reason it is forbidden in the heavenly religion.
The Disagreement of the


It's dangerous in Gods temple as well, gods liver and bowles and brain all hear you. But the serpent is strong in some of us.


Drinking and driving is insane. Of course if you had an emergency, labour, amputation some reason to take a chance

Does anyone question our present leadership on their "Tough on Crime" for failing to address the carnage from drunk driving?

I could if I was interested.
Why didn't you say you weren't interested. A thousand pardons, given your significant lack of knowledge on the issue, I naturally assumed you were here to learn something. I didn't realize you were just a troll

They don't want to get tough on impaired driving. It's too much of a slippery slope.

It's already in Criminal Code of Canada. It's upto Provinces to enforce and mandate stricter interpretations like getting a 24 roadside suspensions for as little as 1 drink or a doobie.

I see you have not changed- why insult another member- go after the points made.
Can you do that?

If she bothers to make any. Funny though, the only response you made to me was personal and had nothing to do with any of the points I've made. You're such an entertaining hypocrite.
