They said just last week they charged a girl with impaired driving even though she only blew .02, because she wasn't able to drive in a safe manner and was swerving.

The part of the discussion that was news to me, was the fact that the charge of impaired driving can actually be applied to almost anything that hampers your ability to drive. Things such as being sleepy, eating, being high. The one cop said it's funny how many teenagers she pulls over who are obviously high and get really cocky about how they can't prove it and there's nothing the cops can do, but if she's pulled them over for swerving or erratic behaviour she'll charge them with impaired driving.

Even a REal Estate Lawyer could get them off.
