C'mon Wingznut, I'm sure I've seen better repsonses to harder questions from you. Why are you frying my eggs on this one? I know driving is a privilege earned through testing and keeping your nose clean. I know you don't obey every traffic law all the time; noone does. I do believe the open container law is a civil offense so let me think... Aw screw it, I don't have to. I'm not advocating that people commit misdemeanors so I'm going with the 'no blood, no foul' defense on this one. Know your limits and don't fvck up. If you do, pay the price, and I'm not referring to my earlier self-destructive attitudes.
:beer:

btw, alchohol affects you as soon as it enters your mouth. its a FACT

You did the right thing. Chances are he could've harmed/killed someone if he got drunk

On the school bus question posed - of course I would call the police if they were driving the school bus. Recently, a local airline pilot was busted for alcohol as he was trying to board his flight to fly the plane; he was starting his shift and he stunk of booze. Bad call by the pilot in my opinion. I think the airline was Northwest; GR has a rinkydink airport so it's probably them. I'm going to rat someone for drinking a beer if they display decent driving ability. If that person is on there way to the airport to pilot a plane, I would expect people at the airport to catch him if he was intoxicated.

why would you rat him out? i mean, that sounds like basically what you do...

Yeah, like that really happens. Why are we even discussing it?

People don't pour Coke into a beer bottle and go driving around with it.

I'd kind of feel nerdy calling the police but that mofo could kill someone.
