Some people when they go on an alcohol binge on a Saturday night with friends; ensure that one of them is sober to drive everyone back home safely. They take turns with this responsibility of safe driving. Drink and driving remember is a criminal offence and it is a stigma if you are caught with this offence - even if you are not involved in an accident. If you hold an important position or are well known in the society like being a doctor, lawyer, a professor or celebrity, the stigma can haunt you for the rest of your life. The Police are obliged to give your name to the media and suddenly you may find that your notoriety becomes a point of discussion in your community. As Knute Rockne says "Drink the first. Sip the second slowly. Skip the third." |

Posted on: 10/17/2011 How does 30mg/100ml translate in terms of the amount of Alchohol that can be consumed by an individual and keep him within this safe limit. Will having a bottle of beer keep within this safe thresh hold. I know BAC depends on a lot of other factors...but I guess a safe limit can be arrived at in terms of bottles of beer.....or a CHOTA or a BADA peg.......Cheerio. |
