About as much as any of his other posts on various threads today.
On one he made some snide reference to a 'bitch' and her period. Without trawling through his previous posts, his attitude seems to be more cyclical than any menstrual woman

| Quote Ferocious Aardvark="Ferocious Aardvark"Well we've had the whole "impaired" debate many times and technically obviously any drug or medication you take at any time has [isome[/i effect but personally I feel having one pint is not relevant to my driving. If at the local they have a weak beer, say up to 3.6, I might even have two - as I know I would be safely under the limit, and won't be driving a long distance or at any speed.'"
Just as an experiment have one or two pints of 3.6 beer and then try to play squash,
You may then reconsider whether your driving may be affected.

A couple of years ago I'd returned from a fishing trip and joined the rest of the lads in The Sailor's Return in Weymouth. I had one pint of cider and then drove home. I was pulled by plod at Sherborne and breathalysed. The reading, much to my surprise, was ZERO! In the space of half an hour I had apparently metabolised the cider.
For information: I no longer drink any alcohol if I'm driving, after the above situation, I cannot rely on the rate I absorb alcohol at all

| Well if you want a pint you can pull off a motorway and get one anyway and then get back on.
What is so different about a motorway?
They are safer roads anyway in general
Although a drunk could cause a right carnage and disruption.
But I don't think we are talking drunks here are we?
Just a bite to eat and a possible drink.
Not all people who would fancy a drink with their meals are drivers, so they are catered for.
It's all about responsible choices at the end of the day.

| I think the greater risk from having a pint before driving any distance on a motorway is that of drowsiness.

Why say something so stupid when I myself made the point that taking any drug is inevitably going to have "some" effect?  The question isn't whether your functioning (whether driving or anything else) IS affected, but rather HOW and TO WHAT EXTENT it is affected.
The other point I made, which presumably you also missed, is that at present in this country it is legal to drive with a small blood alcohol level, and so the law of the land does not judge anything below that level as SIGNIFICANTLY affecting the average person's driving, to the extent that they should be prevented from doing it.
Anything that I actually SAID that you'd like to comment on?

Agreed, and also the faster speeds you're going to be driving at, the more significant even a small effect on any of your faculties might be.

Sin Bin maintains it's teenage levels then, led by it's mods. Perhaps that's why it's so quiet, apart from a few blatant trolls, here lately?
