i’ d like to see the driving thing done by people that regularly drink and drive, i know a few and they drive better than they normally do when drunk because they put more effort out in order to drive safely. as for the cell phone thing it is a matter of how invovled they are in the conversation, my sister was looking at a red light with a red car going through an intersection while on a cell phone and continued on until every one in the car yelled at her to stop, while i frequently drive with my cell phone...
A DWI is a very serious crime of Driving While Intoxicated. If you are stopped by a police officer under suspicion of driving while intoxicated, they are allowed to test your BAC, or Blood Alcohol Content level. This is usually done with a device known as a breathalizer. If your BAC is found to be .08 or higher, you can be arrested for a DWI.
