But it's surely just a contraction of drink(ing) and driving. Seems to make sense to me.

Drinking and driving is where you drive around in your car drinking. Also known as booze cruising. Drunk driving is when your already poo poo faced and decide to drive somewhere. Usually home or McDonald's

How are you remotely "drunk" from one drink? Are you like 120lbs?

I've drank two pints of beer in 30 minutes and blown almost zero on a roadside ASD at a checkstop right outside the bar.

I'm a big guy and I don't feel much from two drinks, so that's my limit. It definitely isn't impeding my ability to operate a vehicle by a noticeable or probably even measurable amount.

I didn't say I was drunk, I just error on the side of caution since I can't badge out of poo poo anymore, yo.

I don't carry my badge unless I'm on duty so neither do I.

For me, two drink is the side of caution. Like I said, I've already blown on it and was cleared. No worries.

No Booze Cruising is when you a return to France on the ferry and fill as much of your car as possible with tax reduced alcohol and ciggies.

also lol our government is terrible http://www.ft.com/cms/s/2/5426fc12-6346-11e4-8a63-00144feabdc0.html#axzz3Ie77XVzT

quote:

George Osborne must cut deeper into the budgets of the army, police and courts as the annual savings needed to meet his austerity targets are set almost to double to £48bn, Financial Times analysis shows.

As Britain hits the midway mark of its decade of planned austerity, the findings suggest that far from the cuts becoming lighter after 2015 – as the chancellor and prime minister David Cameron have suggested – they are poised to become much harsher for departments outside the protected areas of health, schools and overseas aid.

The findings will come as a blow to the Conservative party which, only six months away from a general election, is seeking to attract voters with talk of more tax cuts.

Many experts, including the International Monetary Fund, say taxes will have to rise in the next parliament or more money will have to be borrowed to prevent a serious hit on many public services.

Mr Cameron wrote last month that most of the cuts in the austerity programme had been achieved, with only £25bn a year still to be removed from budgets.

But the FT’s analysis has found that less than half the reductions have been made. The analysis is based on the Office for Budget Responsibility’s Budget figures from March, which outline the government’s spending plans until 2018-19.

If the next government continues to ringfence health, schools and overseas aid, the non-protected departments face real cuts of 33 per cent, compared with the 21 per cent cuts they faced between 2009-10 and 2014-15.

I look forward to 2020 when the police consists of Weird Brian and his dog, whilst the army will be transformed into a battalion of angry tramps hopped up on special brew*.

Do you guys north of the border differentiate between driving whilst having drunk too much and drunk and/or drug driving? Lowering the drink drive limit is a good idea, I'm a fairly large guy and after a single pint of export larger I know my reaction times are slower but I wouldn't be over the limit.

Our legislation for drink driving and being impaired by drugs is the same as you guys. This change to the limit is the first divergence.

Pretty sure chasing the dragon is where you inhale the fumes from heroin being heated on foil, which I can tell you is particularly difficult if you're driving, especially in a manual. Personally mainlining just before you get behind the wheel is the optimum method of consuming opiates prior to a long drive.
