Why did he get only 20 months for causing multiple car crashes and putting people in hospital(albeit as a precaution). Kirsty Gallagher and Wayne Rooney both got 24 months.
Because lots of things are taken into account such as his criminal record etc, no I'm not talking about 'let's get ready to rumble'
He had the accident at 16.00, if he had been drinking the night before i dread to think how much.. He was drinking on the day.
thats an epic time travelling or mega long sessionSay you start drinking 9pm, have a sensible beer/whiskey+coke every half hour until 4pm
Aye, it's something a lot of people don't seem to be aware of, you can still be well over the limit 8-12 hours after the last drink.Probably, but it's not an unbelievable amount to drink the night before and 'only' be double the limit at 4pm.
Say you start drinking 9pm, have a sensible beer/whiskey+coke every half hour until 4am (knowing you've got to be up at 12 to meet your mum, that's a quite sensible bed time).
4 units per hour for 7 hours is 28 units, not even unusual for a heavy drinker. Going off the often repeated '1 unit per hour', and allowing 1 hour for it to get into his system and start being removed - that leaves 20 hours/units - leaving 8 units - double the limit.
Yes for many that might well be right, but lets assume the Mcpratts liver has had a bit of experience with dealing with booze - he must have either had a blinder the night before or had been guzzling the same day.
I recon he was at it the same day which is not cool.
