Motorists on the pavement.

[Mankymeat FC]

Was stood outside lidl the othernight while the wife was inside getting bread and milk. A car pulls up into the disabled spot, and as the door opens I can smell the strongest whiff off cannabis since I was about 17. It was literally bellowing out of the car. Then a bloke gets out, he's clearly got multiple sclerosis from the way his limbs are contorted. He goes over to the trolleys, gets one and goes into the supermarket. And as I'm stood there waiting for my wife and baby, firstly I'm enraged that someone clearly under the influence is driving a vehicle, but then I started to think about his debilitating condition, and that he probably needs to get stoned in order to stop the shakes, which allows him to go shopping in the first place. I thought about this for a while and my mood lifted and I thought..."poor bastard!"

A good idea to have a breathalyser but imagine the maintenance cost or tax that would inevitably come with it. Death due to drink driving really should be classed as manslaughter though it's a bollocks seeing some of the sentances people receive.

Yeah. You can shoot your girlfriend 4 times through a bathroom door and only get 5 years, so on that basis a tag should suffice ;).

In reality, the overwhelming majority of traffic fatalities are caused by sober drivers, so if they were all banned, the death rate on the roads would come down. (Taking illogic to it's extreme)

Personally, I don't drink and drive at all. In the Legh Arms, I'm the one on diet coke before the match, but it's definitely not helping being sober the way they are currently playing.

Racing drivers are skilled and they race on private ground.
