Got a D.U.I. lastnight...

[MaGilicuti]

my boss has a gold plate pba card. they give out 2 a year and he got lucky somehow and whatever.

anyway he told me this story which a couple ppl said is true. he went to a birthday party was was seriously f'd up. cops pulls him over and his passenger had to go into his wallet to give the cop the papers because he was too fucked up. cop took a look at the gold pba card and told him to have a nice day.

Damn, I hope you feel good...you could have killed somone but you got out of it cause of your loot...what a shame

Matt's right dude. Deaths from DUI arent that much different statistically from deaths from speeding...

If you had the loot, you'd do the exact same thing.

I've just started my own business and as a college student, I dont really need this shit. I'm gonna pay hardcore for an offense that didnt hurt anyone.

Hopefully you will never lose a loved one by drinking and driving...if you do, you will feel different about people getting off on bullshit technicalties...lol at your real man comment. Just having loot don't make you a real man lol

Already happened orb. Personal involvement and emotion do not change logical principles. Also lost people to speeding related fatalities. Should we start jailing speeders? Accidents are accidents. We could have a national speed limit of 11 MPH and eliminate all traffic fatalities.

Not surprisingly, you;re still reciting propaganda about how 'bad' DUI is without understanding more of the facts related to auto safety. Believe what you want to believe.

And finally.....

A not guilty verdict is not a "technicalilty" you must have learned that in law school.

You think it's the same huh. Get drunk and hit someone I care about and I'll show you the difference

But your reaction would be different if I was going 95 MPH and did it?

 

[MissJanet79]

> you'll get at least a one year mandatory suspension on your license

And a DUI won't???

.

If you breathe, you only get a mandatory 3 month suspension as opposed to a 1 yr suspension! Fact is, you should ALWAYS be cooperative...it pays off in the end 'cause either way somehow you'll end up paying for it big! & getting off on technicalities is bull... we all have to pay for our mistakes... you live you learn & you move on.
Glad that hardrock is ok & that there was no accident involved.

Listen kid,

My reaction right now, especially after reading a thread about visiting the deceased, is to smack some sense into you.

Children justify poor behavior by pointing to what the deem to be worse behavior, not adults.

And comparable statistics of speeding vs. drunk driving are irrelevant. The percentage of speeders is greater by multiple magnitudes. So if a comparable number of individuals are killed by speeders and drunk drivers, that means a far larger percentage of drunk drivers are likely to be involved in fatal car crashes than speeders. But even that point is irrelevant.

What is relevant is your puerile treatment of the topic as another excuse to "brag" about your alleged success. As if it is a game, never considering that to many reading your silliness, especially those who have suffered at the hands of such clownish behavior, it is anything but an appropriate forum for self aggrandizement.

In short, grow the fuck up, and stop acting like a punk ass bitch

 

[thelegacy again]

they just changed our legal limit to .08---you cant even drink a single beer without worrying your gonna get a DUI

 

[sh4dowf4lcon]

let he without sin cast the first stone...

Drinking & Driving = Stupid & Dangerous & Illegal

I would bet 90% (or more) of us have driven while we would have failed a BAC test.

I see no point of criticizing Matt for defending his name and his record. We have the right to an attorney and to a defense and to due process as Americans. Most of the time, the law wins. Once in a blue moon the Defendant wins (OJ for example). I think drunk drivers which cause accidents injuring and/or killing people should be given the max sentence (and they usually are). They still have a right to defend themselves, and they almost never win. A jury is not going to sympathize with a repeat offender who has taken the life an innocent person or paralyzed some children.

Personally, I would be devastated if I drank a few beers, then caused a wreck killing or injuring some innocent people.

Sh4dowF4lcon,

Don't know that anyone is criticizing him for defending himself.

He's being criticized for bragging about getting away with it, and then attempting to justify the behavior by pointing to speeders
