    YES.

    You only have to fuck up once to kill someone. One DUI should warrant a lifetime license revocation, as well as jail time and significant penalties.

    Texting and driving is fucking moronic as well.

    Don't be a fucking idiot and you won't have any issues :)

    sounds like you've driven intoxicated and got away with it then.

    Think about it... nothing ever comes from a drunk driver accident.. remember the truck that flew off the freeway a few weeks ago cause the driver was drunk at what.. 6 am..

    Just for the record, a few beers doesn't make a DUI.

    Numerous studies show it takes 4-5 drinks an hour for the average person to even reach .08. That's men and women.

    So when people tell you "I only had one beer and got arrested!" That BS.

    Last week I came across someone 4 times the legal limit...

    I didn't say anything about drunk driving nor am I. I said your analogy is shit.

    Your explanation supports my point.

    Why does the OP allow his son access to his truck key(s)??

    I'd like to know his son's age, occupation and education level.

    That a 40 year old, business owner, with Doctorate degree can't drink & drive any less than a 18 year old, McDonalds employee high school drop out?

    Pretty broad brush you are trying to use there. I can be 100% totally honest with you, and myself, in saying that I have NEVER gotten behind the wheel when even slightly impaired by alcohol. If I drink 1 beer with my friends after work, I would wait at least an hour after I FINISHED the beer before I would even consider getting behind the wheel of my vehicle.

    Now sure what studies you have been reading, but the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse has done numerous studies and have shown that the average male or female can reach a BAC of .08% within a 1 hour time period with just ONE standard drink. That being either a single 12oz beer, a 5oz glass of wine, or a 1.5oz shot. (This is all based on body weight of course)

    I'll tell you what it's going to tell me... and others. :rolleyes:

    Maturity. And if the OP reveals more, we can have a better understanding of the home life there.


    You'll be hard pressed to find a PHD, middle aged business owner having problems the OP's son is having. ... I mean, really?.. You asked me that??

    My information comes from the University of New Mexico. Not sure where your chart is from.

    [SIZE=+1]Approximate BAC (mg%) reached during six different time periods[/SIZE].
    The following tables allow you to estimate the Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) you would reach when drinking over a variety of time periods. Because BAC varies with body weight, number of drinks, the sex of the drinker, and the time over which drinks are consumed, each of these pieces of information is necessary for the calculation.
    One drink is defined as having one-half ounce of pure ethyl alcohol; each of the following is considered "one drink."
    *10 oz to 12 oz of beer at 4% to 5% alcohol, or *8 oz to 12 oz of wine cooler at 4% to 6% alcohol, or *4 oz to 5 oz of table wine at 9% to 12% alcohol, or *2.5 oz of fortified wine at 20% alcohol, or *1.25 oz of 80 proof distilled spirits at 40%alcohol, or *1 oz of 100 proof distilled spirits at 50% alcohol. After 1 Hour of Drinking

    This shows that an average man weighting 180lbs is ABOVE the legal limit after just a second drink in a 1 hour time period.

    You stated that it would take 4 or 5 drinks, which even YOUR chart shows is incorrect.
