Amused to Death posted:My friends are all drunk, my family is all drunk, don't have $45 for a cab. Now what do I do? But is the potential risk to pedestrians and other drivers really worth those 2 beers? I mean I understand the problem, it's another "gently caress the poor" issue, but it feels like people are comparing it to a speeding ticket because you had to get your wife in labor to the hospital. The latter can be justified because you are weighing the pros and cons of making sure your wife and child get into a sterile environment most accommodating for labor versus the other people on the road, but in the former you're talking about having a few beers. How badly does one need that?

Amused to Death posted:tl;dr you're all loving terrible drivers and break the law constantly. Sincerely, a cyclist. And that's bad too I don't really see why prosecuting drunk driving and texting are a "pick one" scenario. It's not like the Judge only had enough budget to pick one. This threads just about drunk driving so that's what people are discussing. IMO after the first text and drive one should face the guillotine.

Pohl posted:Actually, texting while driving is more dangerous than drunk driving. It seems that taking your eyes and attention off of the road for an extended period of time is really worse than driving while intoxicated. OK? Whether or not this is true doesn't change that drunk driving is a bad thing and you probably shouldn't do it. Whatever might be "less bad" doesn't mean "ignore it".
