Re:Busted!!
after reading this i think your really stupid kid for drinking and driving again. The first time you go lucky and i didnt care that much but the second time is just plain stupid. You can only get lucky so many times. And the stupid part about it is that you could have killed someone

0 pm on interstate 5 when i became the exception, yes. She was on her way home from work to see me, I was about 12 at the time. We had spoken about 40 minutes earlier and she said that she missed me. I got a call from My aunt telling me that my mother wasn't going to be coming home. The man was 24 years old and was out for a drive after consuming twice the legal limit! Not only did he cross the center divide, he decapitated my mother. Next time get a cab. And no, I don't speed, unless at the track. Its not just yourself you should worry about when drinking and driving, Its the possible family that you could destroy. Sorry for the rant, I just have a sore spot for this sort of stuff!

. I also agree, drinking and driving or drinking before driving is stupid. You shoulda got your license taken away. That's just bullshit, you got busted once and do it again. Well you say this is an eye opener for you, let's hope so. Read matt's story, that ---- hurts.

Now, heres your scientific lesson for the day.
Specific neurons (I will not get to into detail) in your brain begin to slow down their capability to spit chemicals back and forth between each other. In particular your motor skills are slowed while your internal (psychosis) are increased. This is why sometimes when you're drunk you can "think" seriously but when you try to speak it comes out as complete incoherent babble.
Also other neurons that control responses with muscles in your body begin to slow down making it take more time to actually fire a signal to twitch a muscle (ever been so drunk that you were slow to move? this is why).
This occurs in every human being, I don't care what bull ---- reason people give that they have a high tolerance to alcohol or what not.
The truth is EVERY human being's brain begins to suffer slowness in its neurological chemical transfers, this in turn results in slower response time and can be disasterous when mixed with any sort of device that can hurt another person.
In my personal opinion, it is a severely ethical dilemma to be a drunk driver. You are putting at risk your life, and the life of an innocent by-stander, simply because you were to lazy to get a designated driver.
Onyx may have said maturity, but how about just ------- common sense?

so really i don't have any perspective on the side of people who do drink, but i figure that as long as my friends are aware that no matter what they can count on me as the designated driver then i can be sure that they will get home safe. and everyone else will be safe as well. which makes both of us happy.

Re:Busted!!
hey <b>Tool</b>, I wish you would have gotten busted, then *** rapped in jail, and then your car ripped off along with your licence take away for a few years.
Drinking and driving is stupid. Next time kill yourself before you hurt someone else.

Re:Busted!!
First of all....I posted this thread to talk about my evening.I didnt ask for the bullshit comments and the "kill yourself ----". I posted this to talk about it. I am not gonna drive after drinking anymore its not worth it, For me, my license or the people that share the road with me. Scared straight...yea you could call it that. I still have to go to court and will have to deal with this for a while. I was speeding, not drunk driving lets get that very clear!
Thers a big difference. The officer let me go on my own way because he could see that i was fine. IT'S VERY HARD TO FOOL A STATE TROOPER! I did not fool anyone and i didnt get away with anything. I still have to go to court and pay a huge fine and possibly lose my license. This thread has turned in to a bash me cuz i was "drunk driving". Which is not the point of this thread. I do not drive drunk i find other means of transportation ie;my girlfriend. So please take your remarks and stupid comments and save them for some one else. Thank You
