drink driving check
beast5680:
Got stopped for the first time in ages this morning at 7am in a drink drive check :shock: night after the england game eh? :?
Mr Plod was pulling over everyone in a van or truck this morning only no cars mind just the vans and trucks to check alchohol levels luckily i dont partake of falling down juice very often so was in the clear
blackbob:
i think its good to have checks been driving comercial vehicles for most of my driving life and never been stoped yet
dont aggree with drink driving think it should be a zero tollerance thing
smo:
Sounds like a good use of their time for once, makes a change.
beast5680:
i dont mind being checked but they should make it fair and check everyone, assuming that just van and truck drivers will be over the limit is a bit off

Whilst you have a point, they have to target someone, and as van/lorry drivers are on the road all day, doing many miles they potentially pose a greater threat than someone doing a 5 min journey, also a 38tonne artic does a lot more damage than a 1t car!
