Please DO NOT Drink and Drive.

[lemartinsports]

Very sorry to hear this. It is a very scary thing. I live in an environment where the streets are flooded with people drinking and driving. Vietnam just made drinking and driving illegal in 2020, but nothing happens to you if you get caught now. Maybe just pay a little fine... it is crazy and sad to see the drinking and driving here.

They JUST made it illegal??!!

thats insanee....why are they just making it illegal now??

in 2020 they made it illegal but it does not affect anything. People drink right in front of police and get on their motorbike or car and drive off. It is a drinking society and culture. If you get pulled over, you just pay money, nobody is going to jail or anything impounded..

I'd assume their rationale is the same expressed by the liquor lobbies here, and it has validity.

There is no other crime or offense where you cause no injury or damage to a person, place or thing, yet go to jail or get fined or lose a license.

It's different if there's actually a crash where some liability incurs, but for cops & lawyers in America DUI law is just a country club industry. Jails full of guys getting pulled over for failing to signal a turn or doing 40 in a 35, then forced into a sobriety test.

There's absolutely no reason LE couldn't drive the individual home, rather than impound a vehicle & initiate a crime & civil process.

Salud, Le.

Very good note. It's totally avoidable.

First one that comes to mind is Ruggs (from Raiders). Criminal activity, total disregard for others.

Hope all parties involved are ok. Reminds me of reading about Andy Reid's disgraced son whose had drug and alcohol issues in the past, think he was just sentenced to a few years in the slammer.
