why stop there??Should be lower. Probably .02%. Maybe lower than that.
thats different,, you caused injury to another person,, and what about the sober people that hurt other people?? that happens far more often,,The guy you hit because you're drunk.
Because actually getting a reliable reading below .02 is problematic.why stop there??
Why not shoot them . Your an idiot ... big brother.Seems to me that it should be more.
In many cases...they don't even lose their license for a whole year.
In some places...you can get it back in 30 days if you need it to drive to work or school.
Ridiculous.
I say a five year suspension is fair.
It may be inconvenient...but they did it to themselves. Ride the bus.
so anyone thats had any level of alcohol should go to jail if the drive a car??Because actually getting a reliable reading below .02 is problematic.
No, only above .02%. Use your reading finger.so anyone thats had any level of alcohol should go to jail if the drive a car??
but the sober people that cause wrecks and hurt people get a pass with simple traffic tickets,, got it,,No, only above .02%. Use your reading finger.
I'm sorry, I can't help your poor reading comprehension and inability to think.but the sober people that cause wrecks and hurt people get a pass with simple traffic tickets,, got it,,
sounds like a 2 tiered legal system to me,,
Really? Pretty hard to live and hold down a job without a car unless you happen to live within walking distance of great public transportation and are in really good health, don't you think? Five years is a long time to live without a car. Forget the job, what about getting food, paying bills.
You really think 5 years is reasonable for a first offense? What if the guy got a DUI because he just went through some tragedy in his life and had an otherwise spotless record? What about he was just weaving a little and didn't hurt anyone?
Don't you think simple laws as yours do more harm than good unless they LOOK at the actual individual circumstances and fit the punishment to the crime? Or do you think every DUI is just the same, period.
A couple of years ago I got pulled over by a cop because I did a little lane changing that looked suspicious to the cop. It was about 11:00 at night.
After checking my driver's license, insurance and registration he inquired as to if I had anything to drink that evening.
I told him that it was our anniversary and we had been to a nice restaurant. I old him that when we got there we each had a 6 ounce stem of Champaign. During our dinner we ordered a bottle of wine from the year we were married. During the dinner my wife and I only drank half the bottle between the two of us. We took the rest of the bottle home and it was in the back seat and he was welcomed to check it if he wanted. I also told him I would take a breath analysis if he wanted.
He thought he had a real DUI possibility and actually seemed like he was disappointed when it didn't pan out like he wanted. I just got a warning not to drive like a drunk teenager the rest of the way home.
Some lenience on first offense is warranted. Anyone can make a mistake. If the person has a drinking problem, their second offense will occur pretty quickly. At that point, revoke DL for at least 3-5 years. IF they are caught drinking and driving during that period, they need to be taken out of circulation before they kill someone.

some states are starting to drop it to 0.05At a certain point you could lose your license for brushing your teeth, using mouthwash, or drinking a malted milkshake. I think 0.08 is what most states use. Its pretty reasonable.

workable to fill up the jails,, drink cough syrup and go to jail,,That sounds like it might be workable as well.
Depending on the person the amount that causes problems varies. I rarely drink, so even one drink affects my performance and I can tell. I don’t drink and drive at all.some states are starting to drop it to 0.05
