You automatically assumed I meant illegal drugs...... I didn't, I was including ANY drug which may impair. THATS why there are WARNINGS on the labels
Just because you don't "feel" like a glass of wine will affect you, doesn't mean it won't Bobbie. I am not advocating regulating everything in life, this is something that is ALREADY regulated. Obviously you shouldn't drive if too tired, angry etc, but alcohol exasperates both of these. The stoned reference was odd since that is already catered for under the law.
I quite often feel like having a beer or a glass of wine with dinner, even if my wife offers to drive, I don't often have a drink. I don't need it so I don't have it.
Is this anything to do with the fact that Americans NEVER deny themselves anything.
We went to a hockey game the other night and it was appalling the number of places that sold beer. OK there's a 2 beer maximum, but it didn't seem to be regulated. I was in a suite with free food and beer, and enjoyed the game perfectly well with my Sprite. I had to drive home and I would rather not have it on my conscious if I had a crash (which is all to easy here, fault or no) if I had even one beer in me. DUI's don't seem to mean an awful lot over here, I would rather not join the ranks of people who have them.
OOH did they knock down McCaigs folly.....
