    I DONT ADVICE ANYONE TO DRIVE OR RIDE IF ANY OF THEIR ABILITIES ARE IMPAIRED.

    but this is the kicker consider this what if technically I'm impaired but in all reality and for sake of conversaion I'm not. Thats what the whole test is about. Its about figuring out how high is too high to drive.

    I know this is a touchy topic but it has to be discussed if people will be fined and going to jail when they are completely fine to drive

    I'm sure there are people that think that they can drive perfectly fine over the legal limit for alcohol as well, doesn't mean they are right.

    Ever go to a bar have one or two drinks and drive home? If you waited 2 hours and you would be fine to drive home because your body pricesses the alcohol that fast. Now image that alcohol stayed In Your blood for a week to two weeks and you could be prosecuted for driving I n that period of time even though the drinks effects wore off in 2 hours or less?

    Thats what we are dealing with here and I'm subjecting myself to the scrutiny of my pears on the local news to bring this problem to the attention of the public

    I don't care how long it's in your system, that's not my problem. However people who think they are fine to drive when they are not, that is my problem as it endangers my life and the lives of others.

    Actually it also depends on metabolism rate, size of the person, etc.

    E.G. I don't feel a damn thing after 3 shots in a half hour. I also don't feel anything for the 3 hours past that.
    And no it's not tolerance that I've built up. I have maybe a shot every 3-6 months.

    And yes I've driven with/ridden with people that were high. Most of them think they're better when they're high. I've never seen that to be true.
