He did not look very good in his coffin.


Sad realy, I got pics of the accident scene. There is a cross on the side of the road at that spot now.

Consider youself lucky.

Thanks for your concern..

BTW, I don't plan on fighting it. If my friends want to and it works cool but I'm just going to get it expunged and move on.

You can just say "No officer, I refuse to take a field sobriety test"? I'm guessing then he'd require the breathalyzer?

I was stopped on the side of a street, car running, while a friend ran up to his apartment to get some things. A cop pulled up alongside me and asked me what I was doing and if I had been drinking (I had a couple beers but was in no way drunk). He ended up giving me some of sobriety tests: saying the alphabet in normal order, not reverse (failed it :roll, watching his flashlight with my eyes (failed it :roll, and maybe something else, I don't remember. Bunch of fuckin crap. Had to leave the car there and call for a ride. Fuck that fuckin pig.

..you failed saying the alphabet? Be glad you weren't hooked for DUI..

You don't have to be drunk, by the way. Drunk != impaired.

Yeah, he said I failed. But Jesus Christ, I'd have to be extremely fucking drunk to do that, and I was nowhere near that. Like I said, a couple beers over a period of probably an hour and a half, which I believe for my body size and such would be under .08. The cop was a dick, but in this town that seems to be not out of the ordinary.

Yeah such a dick for cutting you a break and not giving you a DUI. What a total asshole. Doesn't deserve to be a cop. Probably was about ready to tase you too that dirtbag. What a complete jackass.

Does that about sum it up? :roll:

How the hell could you fail the alphabet test if you weren't drunk off your ass?

Actually, 3-4 beers for a teenager can put you over the legal limit if drunk under 1 hour, even less if you're thin.

Edit- I've also never been drunk. I've had a couple of sips of beer and sake, but I realized that alcohol tastes and smells like crap. I don't like the idea of becoming stupid. You don't need to be drunk to have fun with your friends.

3-4 beers to ANYONE in an hour will put you over the limit, being drunk in the laws eye isn't staggering around, you might feel sober but will fail the test. 1 beer an hour is what the DMV drivers guide book says, that seems a bit low to me, but it's not hard to fail the DUI test, I know somebody who had 2 beers in about 50 minutes and was popped and lost his car.

What do you need to stay so disciplined for? Are you a martial artist? Or maybe a monk or something? Just interested.

Just a theory, but it's probably sort of like never getting laid and calling it abstinence. Or never having never gotten into a fight and calling yourself a pacifist.

oooor maybe we like to skip the damage to our bodies and save some money in the process? I dunno, not drinking is a win-win situation. But I suppose if you get hooked on that feeling of no control, then I suppose you just gotta have it.

Rule #2 Don't get caught if underage.

Rule #3 People with "high tolerance" still have high BACs, they just don't suffer as quickly/as much from the ill effects. (Speaking from experience - high tolerance)

Here's the rub: you're legally not allowed to record what the cop said. How fucked up is that?

Tell him if he wants a conversation, you're going to record it. Problem solved.

You said "Same" If it had indeed been the same you wouldn't have been drinking. You are drinking. Perhaps you have gotten drunk at home, perhaps not, doesn't matter since you are still indeed not the same.

He said beer. I've never had a beer. And I've never been drunk in my life. I can't drink beer, I'm "allergic" to the barley in it. this argument is stupid and pedantic. I am done.

And even if you do pass or fail chances are the cop will lie and say you failed hoping to get a confession.

I suppose I should clarify then: I don't drink any alcoholic beverage.



thecoolnessrune: What he said is technically correct, according to what I had posted. He doesn't drink beer, and he's never been drunk. That does not preclude the ability for him to drink in moderation. You fail at basic logic. I award you no points.

I do wonder how much money people spend on beer. One of the guys who lived in the campus apartment with me would buy two cases of beer a week.

I've never been laid either, but I don't call it abstinence. I've never gotten into a fight because I'm not violent, and I seek peaceful solutions to things. I'd like to call myself a pacifist, though not for that reason, but I realize that sometimes violence is the only response to something.

Why stay disciplined? I just like to be as in control of my own mind as I can. I view it as one of the most important things I have. (I'll even disagree with Woody Allen: "My brain? That's my second most favorite organ!") I don't like that judgment and moods can be influenced by chemical concentrations; I even find it a bit unsettling. Give a person an injection of the right stuff, and he can become increasingly violent without even being aware of it.
