[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember reading a Wapo article/series about 15 years ago about what happens when you get a DUI. It featured a few seemingly reasonable people who had recently been charged with their first-time DUI and it wen through how their case was resolved. [b] It struck me at the time bc one was the people was similar to me: a petite woman who claimed to just drink wine with dinner. She blew just over the limit on her way home to Arlington and didnt realize she was over the recently lowered standard. [/b] Dont remember exact details of the whole series but my take-aways were: getting a DUI for the first time is the equivalent of spending $10,000 for taxi ride (pre-Uber days) and the people who got a lawyer faced fewer consequences. [/quote] No sympathy. If you drink (at all--even "just wine") don't drive. If you go out to dinner and know you will be driving home--don't drink AT ALL. It's that simple.[/quote]
