That would explain why they’re all on the wrong side of the road.

I will say that ,I think Americans are a bit slow to catch on.... As a teenager in the late 60's, drinking and driving was, oddly enough, quite socially acceptable. Now, totally blitzed wasn't - but that is a fine line of course.

In the mid-70's while working for my Uncle (Sam) I got to visit a wireless site, near Scarborough, UK. That was a fun thing, for a Navy guy to leave the uniform behind and meet up with some civilians for a couple of weeks. Back to the story... Living miles form any US presence we had time to visit local pubs and sample the nightlife - and it was there, that I first became acquainted with the "designated driver" concept - in action. It seemed wherever there were 3 or four people, one was drinking water with lemons, or something.

Now I wasn't there long enough to understand the ramifications for breaking the law for drinking and driving - but I was duly impressed that (young) people would be that focused. Certainly, people I knew back home weren't doing that.

So - kudo's to y'all in the UK for being the example.

Well no shit that’s why it’s illegal, but drunk and 156mph in the middle of a city? Not even comparable.

You saying they don't in the UK?

I only know you Brits can certainly drink and dive. We did several dives with a British dive club in the Bahamas. We owned a brewery and joked about being professional drinkers, but there was no way we could dream of putting that much alcohol down until the wee hours and scuba just a couple hours later. They were insane!

Gotta agree. My exposure to Brits over the years has mainly been either military types who are very much like US military types, or expats who live overseas. All of whom were just as bad as myself and my drinking buddies. They're some hard drinking bastids. :laugh3:

I don't know, here in Australia they were pretty lax with it until the late 80s. Then they clamped down hard. RBTs everywhere. Failing to blow led to instant disqualification of your licence. Most heeded the call but still there are Fuckwits that drink/drug up and drive.

But the worst, by far, are dickheads that speed with no regard to other people on the road. I hate those fuckers so much. Especially teenagers that can't drive for shit and somehow always kill innocent drivers on the road yet they somehow always manage to survive without a scratch.

Especially teenagers that steal cars and kill other people without a care in the world. After the crash they just run away without checking with the people they ran into. The fucking cocks. I wish nothing but the worst to those cocksuckers.

Not at all but we have much better public transport here for example so it doesn’t seem so prevalent here as it does there. I could be wrong though.

There’s so many layers to thisI’ll leave it at that.

This is a football zone & there’s different directions we could go.

I’ll say in my own experience in a life time. I’d rather be driving 100 mph on the 101 like D. Rob solo,than driving 156 mph with a passenger at night sober in Vegas.
In a Formula ONE solo heck yeah.
-btw in the agreement of it all,there is a price to pay for the silliness in whatever you do in LIFE.
It’s SAD in my eyes to think about certain values that even yourself will over look.I’m not a mirror or a shadow.I’m Myself a just look at reflection of which I’m afraid.
