I think it sucks. But if I were charged with murder after shooting someone in the head, I'd think =that= sucked also.FL000 said:Scenario: you are drunk as a skunk and in the passenger seat of the family car. Your legally licensed son is driving, but is obligated to listen to your directions and do what you tell him short of breaking the law or causing a safety breach.
It is your intention to change seats at the next intersection, and you will complete the drive home. However, you are pulled over before you get the chance to make the switch and you are given a DUI and prosecuted for it.
How does that make you feel?
But in terms of deserving punishment, no problem with your scenario if I have a specific set of defined duties as a required member of the car's crew, and there are paying passengers in the back seat.
