It's a little different when a drinking etablishment does it versus the general public as a whole (Twitter). The intent is different. Like I've said in my last post, you actually have something to fear as an innocent individual, even if you've consumed nothing. That's the problem. You could still be detained in the bus, you should still be searched and whatever else for no reasonable grounds.
If I'm coming home late from work or something, I'd appreciate knowing where these hold ups are so I could avoid the hassle or potential risk of losing my car or something even at 0.00.
The issue is that with the police able to hand out punishment (a real Charter violation), you want to avoid the risk of a mistake. If there was a judge or an expedient way to appeal, that's another story. But if the risk is some guy is going to tow my car and cut up my license for nothing, that's too big of a risk to take, don't you think? Especially for someone that doesn't drink more than one or two drinks ever.
Too risky. Too much authority. So I'd prefer to avoid those situations.
