Don't agree with drink driving but done is done, learn from what you did and what happened and make sure it never happens again, that's all you can do when you've made a mistake

Think of it as a win and a warning
You win coz you didn't have an accident and cripple or kill someone , a lot of people don't think about being over the limit I the morning after

There were a lot of things in the '70s and '80s that were almost normal day to day behaviour. 40 years on they're not, and rightly so.

Fake news. It’s from a comedy book. You can see its a book but it's done the rounds over the years as fact when it ain't. 5 and drive. As if. I couldn't 5 and walk these days

 

[The Hobo]

I remember when lottery first started and the big finger saying IT COULD BE YOU some one tell them im still waiting

nope dont agree with drink driving but I think I may have been over a few times in the morning.... however now I dont drive if I even feel a little bit...

I dont do that "1 pint" thing either.... I am either driving or drinking not both

 

[Wayners]

Never drunk driven. Had 1 pint a few years back (20+) and drove home. Morning hangover and driving is where I may have been over on reflection but not done that for years. Not worth the risk

 

[JessThePlasterer]

I’ll happily have a pint, two If I’m round the corner but never more

Like I said, a lot was acceptable back then which isn't now. Wearing a seatbelt for example

If you have the equivelant of 6 pints and stop at 11pm and drive at 8am most will be over the limit

 

[Deleted member 23452]

If I had six pints these days driving at 08:00 the next morning would not be an issue.

Must have been a fair bit over the limit to get a 2 year ban

We all make mistakes Andy, take it one day at a time, everything comes right in the end

 

[Danny]

you are a lovable disaster @Andy g

The thing is people thing cos you're over the limit at 2 pints 3 times over would 5 or 6 pints, you'd had a lot to be 3 times over ....10 pints probably, that's wreckless and you could have killed someone or someone's kid. I agree with moving on but an important part of getting past a problem is realising and admitting the severity of the problem. You should be well ashamed of that Andy cos you put other people's lives at risk....you were lucky and so was everyone else who lived near you, FFS mate step back from the booze cos it sounds like it don't agree with you and if driving in that state was your decision making when drunk it never will.

@Andy g im sorry but im now all finished with the sympathy advice and help offers from here on!

@55 years old you don't get in a van 3 times over the limit and take a gamble on not killing some poor inicent people, couldnt give a fook if you kill yourself in the process!
