Sorry,but I don't believe you have never driven within 2 hours of 1 drink and I don't believe you've never talked on a phone while driving. But I am done.
The only time I owned a cell phone was back when I worked the overnight shift at a rehab for brain injured clients (to which several of them were there, unfortunately, due to drunk drivers). It was for emergency purposes only- I never used it for personal use at home, as I used my home phone. My kids knew to call me only when it was important- as in, an emergency situation. I NEVER drove and talked or texted. Does that answer your ridiculous question? by the way, after I left the rehab, I ditched the phone. You see, I believe in talking to people in person! I hate the damn things. I see families eating out all the time, not interacting, because they're all texting. Friends at the beach barely talk to each other, because they're texting others not at the beach with them. I hate the things myself, but I can see the use of them for emergency purposes, or for folks who like to take pictures for memories sake. Anyhow, this topic is not about damn cell phones, so why is this even being discussed? Who are YOU to accuse people of lying, when they tell you repeatedly that they have not drove while drunk, that they have not texted while driving?
Just because YOU do these things, doesn't make it ok for everyone else. Clearly, you think people who do things repeatedly like this are just "making a mistake, they're human, after all!" This is the mentality that scares me. No personal accountability, no remorse. You could give a rat's butt that others lost loved ones and friends to such accidents. All you care about is accusing others who have never done it in their lives and calling them liars and defending those who do it, whether it's a one time thing, or over and over again. I pray you never are responsible for such an accident in your lifetime, not only for any future victims, but for the fact that you might one day wake up with a guilty conscience and remember this conversation on here. I would like to think that others who shared stories affected people like you, but clearly, you could care less that any of their family members and friends are in cold graves- ever tried talking to a loved one's headstone? Bring flowers to them, thinking, "what if they had been home that night, or went a different way home, would they still be with us today?"
I guess, though, that none of that matters to you. It's clear you simply don't care at all.
Do you drink and drive often? Do you talk and text on your cell phone daily? Is this why you are defending others staunchly that do, because you do this as well?
