Good point, not sure where I stand on that to be honest.
What I was thinking of really was:
- Person A: 81mg in the blood but it's not affecting them at all, and they're driving perfectly well, reacting very quickly to everything around them, correctly judging speeds and distances etc.
- Person B: 79mg in the blood and they're driving really badly, slow reaction times, miss-judging speeds, miss-judging distances etc.
- Person C: 00mg in the blood but is a dozy cow anyway and is driving really badly, slow reaction times, miss-judging speeds, miss-judging distances etc.
Under the UK law only person A would be prosecuted, but surely persons B & C are driving far worse? But as they haven't gone over a magic number they're not prosecuted.
That was made Illegal on boxing day anyway so he would still be prosecuted ...
Section 4 of the RTA 1988 gives three offences relating to this. Driving, attempting to drive or being in charge of a mechanically propelled vehicle when unfit through drink or drugs. All that must be proved is that the person's driving ability has been impaired. You do not need to prove how much of the substance is in the person's body.
Coffee is a drug though. If someone had this legal substance in their body that im talking about, and it didnt show up as 'drugs' what would happen? Nothing?
edit - I remember someone informing me a while ago that this stuff im on about shows up in your system as smack. Proably a load of twoddle though, like all the rumours about things
....if halfway through a flight I was informed that the pilot was drunk but its ok cause he's feeling fine![]()
Who the hell would want plant fertiliser in their body?
Mephedrone isn't plant food, it's only sold as such to get around distribution legislature. Much in the same vein that mimosa hostilis and other ayahuasca derivatives are sold as incense sticks in the UK. People who really think said drug is actually plant food are showing their ignorance on the subject and probably shouldn't comment anyway.
It's kinda like the dudes who think dope is marijuana.
Mephedrone is legal on a per individual basis, but it sure as hell won't stay that way for long. A variety of mainland European nations have banned it recently and the UK will likely follow suit. The tabloid hysteria sure aren't helping! The sad thing is, banning it, as with many other drugs, will make it much more dangerous as it would then be manufactured by underground sources and cut with god knows what. The safest thing to do is to regulate and educate, but we all know that isn't going to happen.
Unless you want tips on how to break the law and not get caught, well i cant give it to you here
Very well said!
I'm a correct in thinking specific people in this thread are or have been a part of the club scene at some point?![]()
I wouldn't be in the car.
If you’re under the influence of anything, legal and illegal don’t drive a car. Your mate is a fool.

Instead of asking questions like this, just tell him not to do it in the first place. It's not bloody hard, the selfish idiot.
When I read of people like this, I hope they crash into a tree.
