Default Re: A question for you....

Jerry, saying 90% of those who can drive and like a drink, drink and drive is a bit out of line. Does this mean that 9 out of 10 of us gets behind the wheel drunk everytime? once in a lifetime or once a week? or that we all have driven home pi$$ed in the past?

I am no lover of the drink driver and I even support the police morning after breathalising campaign. However should i wish to have a single beer with a meal at 8pm knowing that i wont be behind the wheel until midnight would this make me a drink driver?

What causes most car wrecks where I live is not drinking, its recklessness - not so much breaking the speedlimits but trying the impossible (taking a 30mph corner at 80 in a Civic for example - all sober, but all dead)

The law here is tough on those prosecuted and the insurance companies are even tougher!
