ps. I'm 19 today
Lawl. Where I live, the license doesnt get taken away. Just chuck a 100 bucks into the cop's hand and he's gonna go finding yours if you lost it. :P .. Corruption ruled Nation. Maybe that's why I thrive. Wow. 0.o
EDIT: Happies Buddays :D
Haha new laws will let them take your license away + impound your car on the spot... you DID get off lucky.
And happy bday :P
Lost mine for speeding on my red P's down the M5, lost it for 3 months, but still drove on occasion, not too many cops at my end but none the less I know how you feel :P:
Yeh, but they brought out the rule.. if they catch you driving with no license they'll impound the car :P.
i drive alone with my permit lol
thats bs!, i lost mine for something similar, sept i had my license revoked and had to do the theory and driving test again :mad:Quote:

and you need to do hazard and theory tests all over again,here its rare that they take it for a short time.
anyway i can drive,i havent got a license yet,(i drive my mums car sometimes and i help and get her tank filled up with petrol,and sometimes fill the tyres with air)
but im mostly on computer ftw :p
Your just lucky you don't live in the UK.
They take drink driving so so seriously.
yeh they do,i live in uk ha ha,(not realy)
i live in england,nice over there.
I thought that was only if you're convicted (in a court of law) of street racing?Quote:

Ive never gotten my license taken off me.....Oh wait...i only got a provisional ^^
edit: Happy birthday
you're a dick for putting lives at risk.
im on my L's
i do 100 in 100 zones, occasionally if my mum is away i slap on a pair of red P's and go for a drive. nobody has questioned it for 9 months.
generally if you have P's and DONT break the law, nobody will stop you.
Dude, your an asshole for drink driving, if any other person came in and made a thread like this, he would get pelters by almost everyone for putting lifes at risk... i dont see how some people are saying "unlucky" and "sucks" etc, what the hell?!
God, this shit annoys me to the max.
Too fuckin right. 'Unlucky' are the thousands of people who get injured or killed every year by pricks like Kurt who think drink driving is no big deal.Quote:

I have no sympathy for drink drivers, They should be banged up and left to rot, Never to drive again.
If you would all hold yourself to law you wont lose it I have my driver license for 1,5 year and still havent done anything wrong, havent drink while I needed to ride, no drugs, no speeding, etc ...
You people their license should be taken away and never be given back
Calm the fuck down. Did he say he was drunk? No. He said he had drunk alcohol.Quote:

Does NOT mean he is drunk, does NOT mean his motor skills are impaired, does NOT mean it had affected him in any way. He was just above the limit as far as the law is concerned. Had he been a year older and hence had a full license, the law would have allowed him to have ONE standard drink.
So by your definition, having 1 standard drink on a full license is WORSE than having 1 sip while on your provisional license?
Stop being a hero, it doesn't always work.
Rish, he never stated how much he drank. A lot of people die from underage drunk drivers, and its people like you who say that its okay thats the problem. Even if he did have one sip, it may still impair his judgement. Depending on his weight and how much he drank in the past, etc etc.
I moved to SD 4-5 months ago and within the first month there was a teenage drunk driver who was 18 and took some girl along and they were speeding down the freeway at 80 miles per hour when he decided to show off and the car skidded off the road, into a ditch, throwing them out of the window and seeing that girl lie there on the freeway all blue..it changes your mind about drunk drivers. One sip is not okay. Better to just not take that risk no matter what.
Stop assuming the best of people, it never fucking works.Quote:

Given that police officers don't tend to pull people over and test them for no reason, my money's on the second option.
1. He is not underageQuote:

I live in the same city as him, i know how the Police are. Sure, they could have pulled him for driving like a douche, or, the most likely cause would be, that he got stuck at a Booze Bus. For those unfamiliar with this, the Police set up in the middle of a major road and EVERYONE who goes through has to be given an alcohol test. Seeing as this happened on Friday/Saturday which are the only 2 days they do set up booze busses, that is where my money lies.Quote:

Oh and BTW, yes, they DO pull people over for no reason. And when they do, yes they DO ask for an alcohol test. It IS completely random, i have been pulled over this way at least 3 times on my way back from work.
Fine he wasn't underage. Remove the underage, and what is left is drunk driving kills. Even if they pulled him over just out of the blue, they have a reason for taking away his license. His achohol level was higher then the legal amount. And the legal amount is there for a REASON. Maybe perhaps drunk driving is far worse in Aussieland. All the more reason to stop saying its ok for TEENS to take a 'sip' and drive.
Gauging by his age, he was less than a year away from his full license. He will STILL be a teenager at that point, however, he will then be allowed legally to drink 1 whole glass before he is over the limit. My point, is why make such a big fuss about 1 sip when he will soon be able to drink alot more legally?Quote:

I am NOT defending him, i am NOT saying that he is not in the wrong. I am pointing out that your reasons for bagging him are hypocritical, and are based on NOTHING.

Rishiewishie, i am not bagging him. Instead of having this argument with me why dont you ask him how much he drank?
I'm with Anna on this one, Any amount of alcohol you shouldnt drive, even if a "sip".
I agree completely.Quote:

Also, stop saying that "a sip" is going to impair your judgment, because as i have said and re-said many many many many many many many many many times, the legal limit for a full license is 1 full glass. If 1 sip is dangerous, why would they allow 1 glass?
P.s.- Alcohol is legal, meth isn't. I would love to type out an entire page of ways in which the two differ, but I'm not going to waste my time. Idiot.
I'm not underage, As I'm 23 years old, I will not drive even if i've had 1 drink, And thats the way I believe it should be..
I honestly couldnt care what You think Rishwin, Sipping it and sniffing it is COMPLETELY different.
You say that 1 glass is legal, But I personally think no drink should be legal, Thats my opinion, Im sticking by it.
"Idiot"
Infracted, Fair enough mate.. but cunt is a strong word and I don't like it ;).Quote:
