Hi,

But between .05 and .08 you wont lose your licence, eh?

You guys must have a real nice view from up there.

Cheers,
Nik

Yes us sensible people that dont drink and drive look down on those that do.

Rightly so.

Consuming alcohol prior to driving increases one’s crash risk. Studies have shown
that drivers are twice as likely to crash with a BAC of 0.05g/100ml, seven times
as likely to crash with a BAC of 0.08g/100ml, while a BAC of 0.15g/100ml
increases the probability of a crash by 25 times

Try walk on a mine/construction site with 0.08 and tell them you are fine to work cause you are only a little drunk. Bam, no more job, you're on the next plane home.

They'll do that for anything over 0.000. What gets me is you can have 6x as much smack in your system as you can pot

no one gets the point here, I agree yes legally I was incapable of driving a car, yes I should have thought twice about driving after 2 pints and no food since dinner..I felt fine, I had been drinking water and had no idea I would have been over or I would not have been driving south totally out of my way taking my drunk mates home trying to be a responsible mate. Half u guys will take the piss out of what im writing now cos thats all ur good at..just like whirlpool..everything turns to a bitch from the geeks who are nothing but bored losers and feel they have to show how great they are at takign the piss...good one ya..some of the shit is great...but to the fk head who says 'hope u never get insurance again' is just plain stupid...we are all p-wrx members here I think some people are forgetting that... I FKED UP I DIDNT KNOW, I WASNT DRUNK IM SORRY TO ALL U FUCK HEADS THAT ARE SOOO CONCERNED..I just asked one simple question....I think enough of the attacking..

Ive lost too many friends and family as a result of DD. So i am in no way condoning it. But it is an honest mistake, i had a few drinks with dinner in leederville. I felt fine got in the car to go home went through a booze bus and blew over! People on here need to stop acting like they are better than everyone else and that they have never done anything wrong or made a mistake in there life!!!!
