No one is going to condone lying to a police officer.
All I have to say is it's probably worth the risk if you only have had a couple beers.
If you have had more then a couple beers and know that you shouldn't be driving, your basically screwed anyways so you might as well tell the truth and lose your license.
I think at the point where YOU know you shouldn't be driving, or if YOU know your taking a risk, that is the point where you should be phoning a cab.
Every police officer is different. Some of them i'm sure have a knack for raping anyone they find suspicious of drinking. Some like in my case want to teach someone a valuable lesson, and some just don't wanna do either and are just putting in time.
The fact of the matter is, if you drink then drive, its gonna catch up to you one day. They say a drunk drives 1000's of times before they get caught.
One thing that does bug me about this thread though is the amount of hypocrites. I seriously cannot believe all the high and mighty people here that have "never" had a beer at a pub then drove home.
Go into your average neighborhood pub and there is 15 or more people that do it on a weekly basis.
I applaud those who have never did it.
