Drunk drivers...

This subject is one of the few that makes me start using swear words. How stupid do you have to be to get behind the wheel of a car when you can't even walk straight? There are cabs, designated drivers, friends to call, hell, sleep out on the street for all I care. And with this being my prom night, many of my friends are out on the road. I know they don't drink, but alot of others do. I live right next to a dead man's corner, and I've actually heard crashes outside where people have died. It was horrible. I don't think I ever want to drink, but if I do, I'll make sure to 1:not get totally hammered to the point I don't even know up from down, and 2: to have the proper guards in place(friend driving/cab called, keys to the barkeep, cut off point).

Rant over.

I could kill a case (24 cans!) of Scudweiser at parties from sunset to sunrise and still be coherent.

If you've got no tolerance, 4 or 5 drinks in an hour will give a decent buzz. With a tolerance, your BAC is the same as someone who doesn't drink, but you don't feel the effects as strongly. If you get pulled over and are coherent by your own judgment, your breathalyzer would say otherwise.
