to be over the limit you have to be pretty drunk, meaning you "cant see straight".

but you could get your car impounded if an officer decides that you are not capable of driving properly even if you are below the limit.

its a 24h license suspension

wow, i cant believe that you just said that....

if you are tipsy then it is not safe for you to drive.

period.

dont even try to argue that because if you do then you will just make yourself look dumb.

since when did the term TIPPSY translate to drunk and unable to drive safelty

but thats beside the point

someone who is over .08 could be far safer behind the wheel than someone that isnt. THats the point im trying to make!

i never said 'tipsy' meant drunk. there is a vast difference between the two but being tipsy does mean your motor skills are impaired (ie. hand/eye coordination and the like).

it may not be illegal to drive while you are tipsy as you may not get charged with impaired driving but it still is not safe to get behind the wheel.

Originally posted by E2EK1EL I through 4 different RIDE programs tonight on my way home ... they are out in FULL FORCE! It's good though, a lot of hit and runs this yr.

I think that's a greta thing - seeing as I just got out a relationship with a jerk that would drink and drive and he drives a bloody truck for a living! Last Friday, there was a ride program across the street from my work, thankfully they were there b/c I needed the police to assist me with a ISSUE at my work! so I crossed the street and grabbed the cutest police officer I think, hehehehee

anyways I am all for the RIDE programs and I think they should be out in full freakin' force all year round... I know they are, but you certainly see them a lot more when the holiday season comes around!

You'd be surprised... "over the limit" happens way before "cant see straight"

Around these parts, I always run into them on the way home from work. Always between 4pm and 6pm! I never think it's wise to hassle them, but I never see them out at say 8pm, 10pm, or Heaven forfend, midnight, when there's a greater likelihood of catching impaired drivers. For some reason, I think they do it when it's convenient for their shift.
