Yep I do. Everyone is different,. If you are a 45kg female you will have a totally different absorption rate to 100kg male. Nothing is ever black and white. They can't even agree on what the limit should be, When it was first brought in the ads claimed 5 standard drinks in the first hour and one every hour after that kept you under the limit. Now its two stubbies.

As for speeding I drive through a stretch of road where there are 8 changes of speed limit within 6kms. Its farcical. More people are probably killed because they are looking at their speedos and hot a pedestrian that is walking accross the road against the lights and listening to their ipod. Its particularly ridiculous given that the Australian standards for speedometers in cars sets a 10% margin for error.

We need rules and limits. I get that. But the [censored] revenue raising nazi-ism when it comes to this stuff and the ridiculous zealotry is just insane.

Speeding tickets = "nazi-ism"?

[censored]. Some people really work hard to find ways to be victims, eh.

It would have been a very long trip home for him. I wonder if Finnis was waiting for him at the airport. I would have.

Thought I read today there is no grounds for a contract renegotiation? It would be up him to amend it. I wouldn't..

if you have a good enough lawyer there is always grounds. otherwise there would be no legal system

The contract renegotiation relates to the money Carlisle was due to receive from the additional services ie marketing cap. Fair to say Carlisle's marketing value to the Saints is nil.

I don't know if he was ever that marketable, I mean, he still has a WADA case hanging over his head. At the end of the day St Kilda need a KP back man, and at his best, Carlisle is a very good player. This latest saga will blow over fairly quickly, it will be forgotten about once Carlisle plays a couple of good games. In the meantime, I think St Kilda will ask for random urine - or possibly even blood - tests throughout the year. Then if Carlisle fails them he'll pay through his pocket.

In the best Saints tradition,the kid has white line fever,though he learnt the craft under Hirdy.

Thanks for the insult.

So you think being a bit over the limit is no big deal? Where do you draw the line on drink driving 0.08, 0.09 or perhaps 0.10?

How on earth could you argue the bit from my post is tripe? Are you honestly saying that someone who is 0.06 is not impaired, not affected by alcohol? Is that what you're saying?

With your speeding analogy you're also implying that you don't really deserve a penalty for being just a little bit over? You really believe that?

Note i didn't say drunk, i said impaired. The difference between life and death in some accidents might be literally a split second reaction time. Any impairment might impact on that reaction time. That's why we have a limit. It is a serious offence to go over, far more serious and much more likely to be a factor in an innocent person being hurt than some bozo taking a line of coke in Vegas.

Well if your impaired when .05 why do you lose only 10 points if your under .07 and your over 25

You must be a cop or some other revenue dependent state worker.

Europe and the states survive on the roads with a .08 limit and a higher population on the roads.

Keep doing as you are told.

The state has you under control.

or you are drunk off two pots.

Western Australia if you under .09 they won't even bother with the paperwork.
