You'll just have to trust my memory. I paid close attention to the story at the time, and recall 'if you're going to drink at all, have an alternative way home' said by several spokespeople. I specifically recall an interview David Gray had with a Calgary police spokesperson (I believe it was the police chief), where Gray cited the example of co-workers stopping to have a drink on the way home. My recollection:
Gray: "So you're saying even if you stop at a bar to have a drink with co-workers on the way home, and then wait an hour, you shouldn't drive?"
Police spokesperson: "Yes. We're trying to get the message out there that if you plan to have any alcohol, you should plan for alternate ways home."
The exchange stuck in my mind because I recounted it to a friend when we were having a beer and talking about the issue the next day.
