June 22, 201411 yr say one sunny sunday i had 7 pints then needed to drive home how long would it be before im good to go?
June 23, 201411 yr Get in the car a drive home as fast as you can...on the basis the least time it takes you the least damage you can do ...HTHI also apply a similar logic when low on fuel, get home quicker before it runs out It's worked every time so far so must be reet
June 23, 201411 yr I keep it simple by not having any alcohol if I'm driving or planning to be driving in the next 12 hours. I also think that anyone caught drink driving should get a minimum 5 year driving ban. It may make people think twice before chancing it.
June 23, 201411 yr They were racing, according to a paramedic friend of mine who was first on scene. She said it was the worst she'd seen in 15yrs on the job. Traf the two kids that were both "" KILLED "" were not racing. just pulled onto the east lancs it was the two Audis that were racing The lad was from horwich , Rip fella and your young lady too.
June 23, 201411 yr there are loads of different factors, so there can't be any real rule of thumb, as everybody is different. A mates daughter recently lost her licence, she was done for drink driving, she thought she was OK as she had only had 2 halves of Stella.....sadly for her, as she pulled out of the pub car park a car ploughed into the side of her vehicle, a police car was there within a few minutes and she was breathalysed, she was over the limit. When she had the evidential test at the station, she was still just over the limit. She tried the "But you're supposed to be alright with a couple of pints" line, that didn't really help her very much that's another thing many drink drivers seem to forget - all this "I can drive perfectly fine after four pints" which they may well be able to do - but if you're toddling along at 30 and some one else drives into you, or worse still you hit someone who walked into the road without looking, and it's totally their fault - it's not going to really matter if you get breathalised and this seems as good as any place to post this an advert about speeding brutal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MD8BkIgp9Fo
June 23, 201411 yr Kin ell that is a shocker .should show that to the scrotes that do it , more effective than a £30 fine , very powerfull that ad that's another thing many drink drivers seem to forget - all this "I can drive perfectly fine after four pints" which they may well be able to do - but if you're toddling along at 30 and some one else drives into you, or worse still you hit someone who walked into the road without looking, and it's totally their fault - it's not going to really matter if you get breathalised and this seems as good as any place to post this an advert about speeding brutal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MD8BkIgp9Fo
June 23, 201411 yr Not drink driving, possibly boy racing though by the sounds of it. Makes me so angry when I see incidents like this, what is the point at all. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-27968047 girl has now died, lad might be from Horwich http://m.theboltonnews.co.uk/news/11293925.Second_person_dies_after_East_Lancs_Road_horror_crash/?ref=var_0
June 23, 201411 yr I coudln't believe how rife drink driving was in Australia. Most of the people that I worked with would drive to the pub and have 3/4 pints. One day a lad at our work got caught well over the limit and people just laughed it off. At least there is a great deal of shame to being caught over here. I still think it should be zero tollerance like in Sweden. I can't imagine how guilty I would feel if I knocked somebody over after just one pint, even if it wasn't my fault I would spend the rest of my days thinking 'What if?'
June 23, 201411 yr Sweden isn't zero tolerance, it's 0.2mg - we on the other hand are 0.8mg, so 4 times higher. I do agree that our limit should be reduced, far too many people think they'll be OK with 2 or 3 pints, when in fact they are probably anything but.
June 23, 201411 yr so, no drinking on sunday - just to be safe no driving to the match saturday afternoon after a messy friday tis a minefield if i could have a calibrated kit to hand in order to check, they can make the limits owt they want
June 23, 201411 yr Traf the two kids that were both "" KILLED "" were not racing. just pulled onto the east lancs it was the two Audis that were racing The lad was from horwich , Rip fella and your young lady too. I know, my friend was there I didn't mean those injured were racing, I meant they were victims of racing. Sorry if I confused you.
June 23, 201411 yr that's another thing many drink drivers seem to forget - all this "I can drive perfectly fine after four pints" which they may well be able to do - but if you're toddling along at 30 and some one else drives into you, or worse still you hit someone who walked into the road without looking, and it's totally their fault - it's not going to really matter if you get breathalised and this seems as good as any place to post this an advert about speeding brutal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MD8BkIgp9Fo Dear me that brought tears to my eyes
June 23, 201411 yr Fookin loads do it. Lads in vans being the biggest culprit. Couple of jars after work and drive home. See em every tea time in this place. Same vans,same time every night. I used to have a couple before the match on Saturday and drive home but don't bother with that anymore. Don't see the point in risking being over for the sake of two pints,plus what's the point in drinking if your not having a few?? Its the morning after that worries me the most. I shudder when I think back to my early 20's,getting smashed every night till silly o'clock then driving across Lancashire at 5&6am to work every morning. Some days I could barely remember the drive in. Silly billy.
June 23, 201411 yr Don't know if it is all of Spain (presumably yes), but in Menorca it is a €380 fine and a 3 month ban. You can defer your ban by paying double the fine. One of the guys I know paid the double fine, and served his ban the 3 months he spends off the island.
June 23, 201411 yr Good ad, I found this one quite powerful too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvLaTupw-hk
June 23, 201411 yr Good ad, I found this one quite powerful too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvLaTupw-hk like someone mentioned above about Aus, drink driving doesn't have the same stigma in NZ office manager, a woman in her sixties, drove home fairly pissed after friday drinks
June 24, 201411 yr When I lived abroad in sa drink driving was an olympic sport. You couldn't walk the streets as you would get murdered for being white, there were no taxis for white folks and pubs were that spread about everyone did it and it was part of life I learnt my lesson one night, leathered, went into an s bend speeding, lost control and rolled the car seven times being thrown out the side window halfway through. Luckily there was not a car in sight. Normal copper turned up and asked if I'd had a beer, told him yes, his reply was that I had best fuck off as the traffic police were on the way. £never done it since and that was 18 years ago. All over a woman, slag
June 24, 201411 yr How many people drove home from yeovil sober ? Wonder how many people drove home from Southampton in the cup back in 1992 sober?? Yikes.
June 24, 201411 yr How many people drove home from yeovil sober ? I believe I offered to drive the travel club coach home.
