I know someone that did it once and having to have one of these as a result. Suggest you reset your opinions a bit.

    What kind of emergency is more important than the lives of people that might be killed by a drunk driver's mistake? And how is it impossible to find an alternative solution?

    What emergency is so time sensitive it's worth killing yourself and a random family for?

    The fact that you can't actually think of an emergency is telling.

    honestly, any emergency that involves hitting you and yours. that's because i don't feel like remembering them. i've been the car that the police pulls over because it's driving erratically and then takes over driving. it's an abstract concept to you. not to me.

    Were you drunk or just driving erratically because you were in an emergency?

    Also, still didn't name an emergency worth killing yourself and a random family over

    I'm not asking for you to talk about your life, I'm asking you to come up with literally any imaginary event that supports your argument that it's okay to drunk drive under the right circimstamces

    wait really you harass someone with ptsd until they blow up, then complain to the mods over it and delete your comment starting the argument? you are quite possibly the biggest pussy on the internet.

    let me be EXTRAORDINARILY CLEAR. you treat me like my life is worthless, why should i take any action to preserve yours.

    lmao wtf are you on about? What mods? I deleted a comment immediately after posting, it got zero votes and you never even had a chance to reply to it. I don't even remember what it said.

    I said people don't have a right to endanger others, the fact you took that as treating you like your life is worthless says a lot

    “I know someone who only did a murder once and they locked them right up. Suggest you reset your opinions a bit.”

    Replace murder with any crime.

    If you don’t want to face the consequences, don’t do the action that begets the consequences.

    TLDR: don’t fuck around if you don’t wanna find out.

    Nice straw man. Murder != drunk driving.

    Interlock devices are the bare minimum if you insist on allowing people who have proven they will drive drunk to continue to drive.

    I was arguing with the point of "repeatedly" being a determining factor for having to have this device. It's not reality, once is enough.

    Having a breathalyzer is letting them off easy, they deserve to lose their license
