You know what else they could do? $100K fine for the first offense and permanent loss of license. That would cure 95% of the problem.Originally posted by joshh View PostI Timothy 2:1-2 -

I am all for it.
Plus loss of driving privileges and jail sentence would keep the impaired drivers off traffic.
1st time you're caught with alcohol in your blood, you loose your license for a full year. The second time is for 5 to 10 years. Third time is illimited. Go take the bus to work for the rest of your life...Brake harder. Go faster. No shit.

^^ No it wouldnt, that would just increase the number of broke/uninsured drivers that will drive your rates up.
I'm surprised Idaho would go this route. They tend to be more of a libertarian state and police forced blood tests seems out of control. Gattaca/1984 is coming. Papiers bitte.Comment

Yeah the thing is Driving is a PRIVILEGE not a right
So there for they can attach anything they want to it, and you have to abide by to continue to enjoy the privilege of driving

I don't see the problem. If you aren't over the limit, then you probably wont get stopped, and if you do, you should be able to clear the Breathalyzer. If you are over the limit, you shouldn't be behind the wheel. Imagine if one of these no-refusal checkpoints saves an innocent life?Originally posted by joshh View PostI Timothy 2:1-2Comment

Which is it that you are against, the checkpoint, Breathalyzer or blood test?Originally posted by joshh View PostI Timothy 2:1-2Comment

BAC measurement represents a kind of pre-crime that I'm not completely comfortable with. Especially the way it gets abused at times. Worse yet, first time offenders who have committed no offense other than blowing too high a number and have not harmed anyone get hit VERY hard, while repeat offenders are not especially controllable.
Of course, another issue is that breathalyzers can be wildly inaccurate.2006 GMC Sierra 2500HD 4WD LBZ/Allison

Which is exactly why one should refuse to take one. Especially at one of these checkpoints where there is absolutely no probable cause before one will have their bodily fluids sampled or face penalty of jail time.Originally posted by nrubenstein View Post
But hey, with a government that can force us to carry health insurance, and tax us for drinking soda, it only seems right that they take our blood to make sure we aren't drunk. Don't be surprised when they start checking your blood for STD's, or running your DNA against the database for unsolved crimes. It all will be worth it if it saves just one life...'88 iX Money Pit/Labor of LoveComment
