Nice job with the babysitting
Let's get rid of drunk driving laws too while we're at it.

My dad was an alcoholic (one of those functioning ones who kept a 9-5 business job, but drank on weekends). He drove drunk every weekend, often from the city to the farm. He never had an accident in 40 years, except for the couple of times he hit our fence or garbage cans coming home. I added it up and he probably was drunk behind the wheel over 6,000 times, had a perfect driving record and even qualified for the maximum insurance discount because of this.

Every single Friday and Saturday in The Lower Mainland literally thousands of people will drive home drunk. If you don't believe me, just hang out by any restaurant, pub or club at closing and see how many drive home. And statistically, 99.999% of them make it home without any incident at all.

So why are we cracking down on drunk drivers who might cause an accident? Likewise, why are we cracking down on cell phones and texting?
