I've had two DUI's.. the first one I was 17 and blew over the limit. The Cop told me if he gave me a 08 he would be stuck behind the desk for 3 days doing paper work. He then asked if I was within walking distance of my house, I said yes, he said here is a 04, 30 day suspension, don't do it again.
The second time I was WASTED on campus after a big Commerce BBQ, the campus renta cops had a barricade all set up, pulled me over, cop said damn near the samething. "luck you stayed out so late, I'm over the amount of 08's I want to hand out tonight, 24 hour suspension, don't do it again."
I was young, dumb, and wreckless. I haven't driven even after ONE beer since. I look back now and it is a wonder I didn't get any worse, or hurt anyone. Stupid, stupid mistake. Driving drunk just does not pay, avoid it at all costs kids!
