After watching an advert yesterday evening on drug-driving and the narrator stating that the penalties are the same as drunk driving (which they should be), Im questioning the process of dealing with 'drug-drivers'.
I have a few points I have probably overlooked and I hope they can be answered.
1: Drunk... you do a roadside breath test
1a: Drugs... you look at the pupils
2: Drunk... you fail a roadside breath test, get arrested and will be taken to the police station for a more accurate measurement of your breath sample. I must add I dont know what this is, but you can demand a blood test if one measurement is below 40? 40 what?
2a: Drugs... now this is where Im stumped as to what is done! A pupil check at the local police station? Blood tests?
The waste of space that is Mr P Doherty seems only to get arrested if they find evidence of drugs in the vehicle. Im sure I was stupid enough to neck a few pints and get pulled over for drunk driving, the constabulary could charge me without a 4 pack lying on the back seat!
Just wondering.
