Twoply 0 #1 December 15, 2007 A friend called me to pick him up after being charged with DUI. He hurried through a yellow and got caught. He was still in his pajama bottoms and slippers while just running up to Taco bell. He blew a .10 and he's no lightweight drinker. Careful out there.

elpeludo 0 #3 December 15, 2007 Hey man, sometimes..... shit happens. Be glad that you are not going to your amigo's funeral or that some else got nailed by the vehicle. I had a DUI myself only 1/2 mile from my home back in 1995. I blew a .28 first offense... Shit !!! the whole seen was an awakening for the things to come.....Mmmmmmm jail for 25 days, DUI classes, community service, fines, restitution, 7 years probation with a clause,.... "break no law." nada/period! I do not know what your state has as a guideline for the offense but, California is getting even tougher and we now have a mandatory 20 -30 day encarceration for first time offender's who blow over a .12 and give the arresting officer any ounce of trouble or conduct themselves irresponsible during the "investigation " If your amigo has a problem help him or her through it and encourage them to understand what it does. " alcohol is a powerful thing" I know, I am a recovering alcohlic. Have faith ! El Peludo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In Louisiana the limit was .2 when I lived there. Late 70's early 80's. I'll say it again. Some people can handle alcohol better than others. Sick of these set limits. There needs to be a better way. It's all about the money don't ya know? By the way. I do not drink and drive.I hold it true, whate'er befall; I feel it, when I sorrow most; 'Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all.

shropshire 0 #8 December 15, 2007 Absolutely... I'm far from perfect (I know, hard to believe isn't it?)..... When I got off the train the other evening, after several beers, there were no spare Taxis. I was tempted, at first to take the car!! But after giving myself a very stern talking too, I shared a taxi with another guy from my town. (.)Y(.)
