I think so. The law says it's ok to drive half pissed. That's batshit crazy.
The .05 level does not determine your capability to drive a car. Some people are unaffected way over that limit, while others shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a car after two drinks. The only sensible approach is zero blood alcohol.
The big problem with the .05 law is that the decision to drive is made by someone that has consumed alcohol, and alcohol does not improve your ability to make a rational decision.

i still maintain that club loyalties blind everyone when it comes to transgressions of their own players.
Nah. I'd feel the same way even if he was a Bomber...

Hodge should not be playing against the Crows this week
He will play. Voted second best captain in the league.

He shouldn't be playing cause he got done DUI
Ffs another example of how overrated he is. Walker and Murphy should be well ahead, even Hurn.

Nothing screams courage like putting innocent lives at risks to save $20 on a cab when you make probably $1 million/year.

Pretty interesting article and on the money for mine. Hodge obviously not in the right frame of mind to play and most of the players followed suit. Again shows what a weak decision it was by the Hawks to allow him to play.

They made a weak decision when they should have made a week decision.
He was courageous with his licence, drove that car with reckless abandon for it!
Why are you crying so much?

Because I don't understand your power rankings.
That's a given. But why are you crying like a baby about Hodge?

Why are you endorsing drink driving?
Yes and I'm asking why that upsets you and makes you whinge so much.

You're further gone than I thought Roby. If you can't see why someone would be upset at someone breaking the law and putting innocent lives at risk, you are well and truly stupid.
But feel free to keep defending him, he's obviously playing great footy on the back of it, which according to Hawthorn is all that matters.
Well if it upsets you so much then why are you wasting time here on a forum when you should be campaigning for against drink driving? Not sure if you know this but the law and government that rules this state did not suspended Luke's licence. He is free to drive.
