Sobriety Checkpoints

Driving home from a bar last night at exactly 2am, Senrock and I got routed thru a sobriety checkpoint. It was rather entertaining. I was driving and completely sober, although Sen had a flask FULL of Jack in her pocket.
I had a grilled cheese sandwhich in my hand and I had to pass it to Senrock so I could show my lisence to the officer. Good times. In all honesty I think these are good things. Sucks for the assholes that are driving drunk but i'm sure these checkpoints save lives. Happy Holidays everyone and please don't DRINK and DRIVE!!

Was Sen like "Why is the FLOW of traffic not EVEN moving right now?!?!?""The leads are weak!"
"The leads are weak? Fuckin' leads are weak? You're Weak! I've Been in this business 15 years"
"What's your name?"

Are you aloud to drive with food in your hand? You can't do that in England. I mean, you're not allowed.
You're right though. Don't drink and drive!0 -

As long as you're not carrying a beer you should be fine over here. Crazy mofo's reading the paper, applying makeup, texting, emailing, on their laptops, etc. I'm so happy I no longer have to drive! It's probably added a few years onto my life from removing the stress!"The leads are weak!"

I got stopped by a checkpoint 2 months ago.. the guy in front of me and the guy behind me got pulled out of the line and were given sobriety tests. Being in the presence of that many cops staring into my eyes freaked me out! I was sober from alcohol though;)Whoa, chill bro... you know you can't raise your voice like that when the lion's here.0 -

what...nobody got tased curbside?Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

i took a sobriety test for a laugh in a pub when i was completely drunk and i got 0.59, the limit is 0.40 so really i wasnt too far over even though i was really drunk! i really despise people who drink and drive, the only reason i dont drive is because of the pressure to drive home afer "1/ 2 " drinks, i never want to drive a car after some of the accidents iv seen, it really is sickening!0

.40 is the legal limit? according to wikipedia, at that point you are either unconscious or dead.
.08 is the legal limit in most (if not all) of the states.0 -
what states are these checkpoints in? i've heard of them but not much. we dont have them in tx. seems a little invasive....basically pulling people over for no good reason. but they prob do wonders for accidents.all these burning battlefields are now behind us, life has brought us here together to remind us, that love will rise above it all and just keep growin, life keeps flowing and every moment starts right here with us
