There was a documentary on the Diana crash, and the reporter got his alcohol level to the same as the driver was alleged to have, which is nice work if you can get it, but the argument was, for a given alcohol level, we would all be equally as 'drunk', but we have to drink different amounts to each other to get to that level. So, some would take 4 pints, and others 20, to get to the same blood alcohol level.

Does that sound credible?

Exactly what I put earlier DMD, tolerance levels are different for every individual. Again I say if you have to drive the next day don`t go out on the lash the night before, it aint rocket science. The ambiguity is the killer in all of this. If in doubt dont drive, it really is as simple as this. They also do self testing kits now, so if you really want to get a few down you the night before, and are unsure have one on standby to see if you are safe to drive. Those that think they will be safe because they have had a nights sleep run the risk every time, despite having a belly full the previous evening, or in some circumstances it doesn`t even need that.
 
BBC Breaking News: ITV's Saturday Night Takeaway will not air this week as host Ant McPartlin "returns to treatment" after arrest.

Not a surprise really.
 
Am I the only one who doesn't give a **** about Ant and Dec?


No.
I would like to know what exactly they do apart from introducing people on shows. I fail to see what talent you need to do that and why they draw adulation from juvenile minded people.
Perhaps I have just answered my own question by stating juvenile.
 
He's no different than that plymouth goalkeeper
Ant got lucky he didn't kill anyone

D
 
The frightening about drink driving is, how many times they have managed to get away with it before being stopped or having a prang.

They're by far Britain's most successful presenters, I doubt they're overly concerned about you thinking they've got no talent.
 
Typical celeb thinks he's above the law.
Could have killed someone six months on prison will soon sober him up.
 
I'd say don't drive at all the next day. If you literally have to drive every single day then yes, you probably shouldn't drink ever.

Don't be silly.

And don't use mouthwash or sprays as you will fail. In fact certain medications would make you fail.

Actually you could fail if you are teetotal as alcohol occurs naturally in the body and some foodstuffs would end up giving a reading above zero.

Aren’t nearly all, if not all, mouthwashes alcohol free now for precisely this reason?

The problem isn't with people just under the present limit so lowering the limit would just make criminals out of people who aren't the problem. The people who are the problem don't give a stuff whatever the limit is. Same as people who drive without a licence or who drive untaxed, uninsured vehicles andvescape with a slap on the wrist. The main deterrent is a fear of being caught and receiving a harsh penalty.

There's no treatment available for been a ****. It's a lifelong condition.

He should face the music. And do the show instead of hiding behind his "addiction".

Taking a taxi home may not be the answer either, one of the Uber self driving cars has run over and killed a woman.

I didn't even know they were up and running on the road, i thought they were still being tested.
