newworker, I rarely speak up like this on here, but this is one issue that I will! I know your only 18-20ish and you have alot of learning to do. One day I HOPE you will change how you think about drinking and driving, but for now you may want to read this:  | |

I believe the more Newworker speaks, he is trying to head to the top of that list

Maybe he's just a troll. What better way to rile up folks than to go on a professional driver's site and advocate drunk driving.

Google is your friend, except in this case where you can't back up your propaganda.
It's easier for you to call me names than to actually back up what you are saying with statistics. | |

But on further examination I saw only 3 people negged me and 2 people gave me positives.

Alcohol-related motor vehicle crashes kill someone every 31 minutes and nonfatally injure someone every two minutes(NHTSA 2006).
That statistic alone is enough proof that DWI is not smart!!!

It's no surprise either..seeing he posts mainly in trollspeak.
Newworker- Your position is flawed. The law prevails without regard to time of day. Driving while intoxicated is illegal at any time of day.
Guilty. | |

I basically made 2 statements on this thread.
If I was on the jury, it would make a difference to me if a person is arrested for drunk driving 3 am or 3 pm. That's my opinion.
More deaths are caused by non -drunk drivers than by drunk drivers. And that's a fact.
Where did I advocate drunk driving? | |

Drinking and driving is wrong. period. no matter what time of day. Who cares if drunk driving isnt the number 1 reason people are getting killed. Why add to the risk of an accident. You may be the first person Ive ever hit the ignore feature for, because the stupidity is a waste of my time.

Why?Is it any easier on the family of the person killed by a drunk driver to know they were killed in the afternoon instead of 3 in the morning?

Thats because alcohol is illegal in Iraq....duh
Where did I advocate drunk driving? | The fact that you seem to think it matters when its ok to DUI. | |
