The founder of Mothers Against Drunk Driving argues that we should go after the dangerous drivers and not waste time and money going after those with little probability of causing accidents.Remember DUI is not necessarily Drunk Driving. It is quite literally Driving Under the Influence. I can’t tell you the amount of clients who come to me and say, “but I wasn’t drunk.” And at .08 or .09 they probably weren’t but again they were over the DUI legal limit. 2) A good general guideline for most people is to limit consumption of alcohol beverages to one drink (beer, wine, or spirits) per hour. Consuming no more than one drink per hour tends to maintain a low blood alcohol content level. Eating food and snacks (especially those high in protein) is also a good idea. 3) We now have a 40-to-1 greater chance of being struck by a sober driver than by a drunk driver. 4) A typical glass of red or white wine, bottle of beer, or drink of spirits (rum, whiskey, tequila, etc.) each contains almost identical amounts of pure alcohol. |
