I have a friend A who drinks and drives. She usually only has one drink, sometimes two. Since we've been friends we've never ridden together after she had only one or two drinks. What I've heard that one drink takes one hour after to drive and she does not do that. I don't want her to drive but she drives anyway. I drink more than she does but I don't want to be with her when she drives because if she gets pulled over we both get in trouble. I don't know what to do. What would happen if we get pulled over if we are both under the influence, even if she is more sober than I am? Tonight I talked her out of driving but if she wants to go that is her decision. I am just worried about her and I'm worried about getting in the car with her when she drinks.

Never ride with someone you think drank to much, never.

It is not worth getting in the car with her when she drinks, that is a very dangerous
situation and she or another driver could be killed.

Lark it's not worth it please don't get into a vehicle if someone has been drinking.

True story Dan and Dave are brothers and also twins. They did everything together including drinking way to much. One of them was supposed to turn himself in for a dui charge. On the way to turn himself in him and his brother his twin brother decided to have one more drink for the road. One drink turned into 2 drinks 2 drinks turn into 3 and so forth by the time they left both were drunk and heading to the jail to drop off one of them. Before they got there they got into an accidents a major accident one of them died the other brother was really hurt and had to have a lot of surgerys etc. but he was driving and he ended up spending 4 years in jail for causing his brother's death. His identical twin brother.

He is haunted everyday by what happened. Drinking and driving don't mix not at all
