You can get a DUI for driving under the influence of spray paint or properly prescribed meds, too. You can lose your pilot's license the same way. That's one reason why it's best to avoid drugs that cause impairment when driving or flying. I should think that concern for safety would be the overriding reason, but some people don't care about safety--they only care about being able to do unwise things without getting caught. |

Depends on whom you ask, doesn't it? There are some fairly objective tests of impairment. The police used to/probably still lurk outside of the tavern and follow people they see go drive away. It's happened to me, even when I was the designated driver. At the smallest infraction, they have you. Then avoid infractions. People get tickets all the time who aren't impaired, but, if you happen to get one after blowing .02, that doesn't mean you're "impaired," but, they still busted people until they got smacked down for it. Then don't drink at all before driving (or flying). |

He's very proud of it as it represents the pinnacle of his flying accomplishments. |

Since he begs for stuff costing less that $10, I highly doubt it, so his "thoughts" on driving would be just as valid as his "thoughts" on flying. -- Jim Pennino Remove .spam.sux to reply. |
