I know a couple. They will happily drive their car after having a
glass of beer, but the same people would never think of flying a
plane after the same beer.


Why do they make the distinction? Car accidents are much more common
than airplane accidents, and typically 50% involve alcohol.



No, they don't.

Which makes you a liar as well as an idiot.

Mental or physical pain during withdrawal to the point that you can't
lead a normal life without regularly taking the drug.


What causes mental pain?



If you were sitting here reading what I am....

Drinking and driving is different than being cited for drinking and
driving.


You can't be cited for it unless you're doing it.



Of course you can, you moron!

Why do you always sound like you have been drinking and deriving.


Deriving what?

If drinking and driving isn't addiction, what is?


You are an idiot.

It's clear that you don't understand addiction at all. There is ample
information available on the web that you should be able to enlighten
yourself about addiction without too much difficulty.


There's also plenty of information on the Web indicating why it's
stupid to take drugs and operate vehicles at the same time.



Wow, where would you be without the web?

Oh I know. Ranting to people on the street

Living in a dumpster because you spent your rent money on drugs, and
you're too high to coordinate a robbery for your next fix.


I know people who spend several hundred dollars a month on cigarettes
and/or alcohol. Are they addicted? I know people who can't go an
hour without a cigarette or a day without alcohol. Are they addicted?


Yes, so what, fjukkwit?


You're a million miles away from your original assertation.

I don't have to fly to know the rules.

But you have to fly to understand them. You don't fly.



You keep talking about drugs. What drugs are you talking about?


Alcohol, in this case.



Why, what are you on?

There is also a reason why no DUI laws begin at 0.001%.


There are many countries in the world where it's 0.0%

Of course, I was referring to the US, as I have no idea of DUI laws
elsewhere. Aside from countries where consumption of alcohol may be
illegal, which countries have a zero tolerance for drinking and driving?
