Warning the morning after the night before

Yes it was, it was 7mg over the limit.

well yes but do you know at the time I had only had 2 pints and lets be honest we all think we're ok on 2 dont we? If this post saves one of us from making the same silly mistake I did then it's been worth it. merry christmas everbody,have a safe one

 

[markc123]

We all think we're safe, and in most cases we most probably are if just over...the fact is in the eye of law if you're over the limit, you're over the limit. They don't take any prisoner's and they love to make a scape-goat out of people. I know a few that have lost licenses, thankfully and touch-wood it'll never happen too me.

I know i'll be taking it easy on the driving over the christmas period, because im sure the cops will be out in force...especially boxing day.

Have a safe one everyone. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone on this forum....well most anyway :tounge_smile:

I'm sorry mate im going to have to disagree there....i believe that the law in fact do indeed take prisoners....its sort of their whole remit to begin with....the law not taking prisoners, would be about as useful as Anne Franke's drum kit

Haha you know what i ment

Although, as you're from down south you probably don't :tounge_smile:

Of course I did, I was being facetious.

And if you're suggesting that my southern heritage may give me an intellectual disadvantage, as a result of poor genetic inheritance caused by decades of poor education and poverty here in Surrey, brought about by the detrimental effects of globalization and the loss of local revenue generated through the free trade movement provided by the EU community, with the sale of hand picked gooseberries, leading to the break down in primary educational facilities that subsequently led to sex education being taught from what was written on the public toilet doors at the local train station, furthermore increasing under age pregnancy and a collapse in the local welfare system, hindering the local employment arena from desperately trying to emerge from the recession crisis that has successively led to northerners....assuming....that they are our intellectual SENIORS....then you sir, are most certainly suffering from ignorationis a latin term may you want to ponder when you have time to pull your head out of your bottom, young sir.

Worst thing is we all do it and most the time we don't realise, bet the police even do it after a session should breathalyzer themselves.

They have random breath tests before they go out on the road.

A few months back we went to a funeral then to the pub for drinks afterwards, we sat with one guy who downed at least 8 pints and several double whiskys. As he left he got his car keys out so I asked him if he thought it was a wise thing to do after so much alcohol. The knacker swore blind he was a better driver after a good drink and that because he drove a jag he would never get pulled.

Please tell me that the end to this story goes something like "he then wrapped his jag round this first tree he came too"

Drink driving in that situation is just stupidity. I sometimes feel sorry for people who get pulled the day after and are just over, but the law is the law.

 

[trev]

No Mark, unfortunately he's still driving round in it despite many people having words with our local constabulary. He's not been pulled for a random test yet either, I just hope when he eventually does wrap it round a tree that no one is in the way.
There's another guy I know of who has been banned three times yet still drinks and drives, I reckon idiots like that should be vapourised.

 

[MDJ]

I wish I could drink 8 pints haha, thanks for the great advice fella, merry christmas

A mate of mine is a Police "traffic" incident investigation officer and states that its not Xmas when drinking is an issue, its the summer BBQ season. He is of the opinion that unless the Police are allowed to set up "blocks" to speak to all drivers, and on the basis of how they speak/smell breathalyse them, then the problem will only get worse.
