Do you drink and drive? Poll.

It wasn't that long ago most people I knew had no problem getting on a scooter or behind the wheel after a drinking session to trundle off home. I remember the night very clearly when I decided to never do it again - it was a close call.

Have attitudes changed much toward this behavior? Do you drink and drive? Have you ever?

I do. But only when I am certain of the route and I feel clear headed. Some people at .08 are idiots ... some people at .08 are super straight ... when it comes to booze, one size does not fit all ... genetics matter. #itsscience

Well, no.
I mean, after a beer or a glass of wine, could happen. Not drunk, and fine by ethylotest. Add another glass, positive on test, and i don't want that.
Used to go home by bike (Kawasaki GPZ 750 and else) after partying all night 20 years ago, but then, a bit of fresh air under the helmet helped to sober-up, or at least sharpen the tools before hitting the road, but that was over when i moved to asia, taxis are cheap.
Now back home, driving a car, there are more controls based on the looks of the driver and his vehicle, and all penalties tend to be tighter when controlled, so no more of this.
But i smoke and drive, and i'm fine since decades, no accidents or else.

Of course not. You'll just spill your drink

I did (admittedly, too often) when I was a college student. Not anymore! In places where I drink nowadays, there's just no need and it would be idiotic to take the risk.

Let's take my frequent visits to Phnom Penh as an example, where I drink quite often. I can either walk back or take Grab.

Driving drunken on a bicycle I can impossible count. However, for the car/motorbike I have always kept it absolutely strict. No alcohol ever so far behind the wheel. Never drove stoned as well. But to spoil the perfect image: once I drove a friend home, while my trip on magic mushrooms had not yet fully ended. I only realized that when realizing that although it felt like driving 100km/h, it was just 40km/h - on a 4 lane highway...

Just realized: HIGHway. Nice one...

Yeeah, not so great compared to the "no limit" potential of German autobahns...

I also had to drive someone home once while I was on mushrooms. I thought they'd be worn off by then, but I was mistaken. It was a strange drive. We thankfully made it back okay. At least the odometer and other gauges were fully functioning while my internal gauges were in flux.

There is drinking and then there is drinking.
I’d drive after 1 beer, but do not if I have had any more.
I don’t know what the limits are - I’m confident I’m within them - but I don’t want to test them.

Incidentally I rarely drive at night, because of all the half pissed drivers on the road.
