  The best way to eliminate this risk is public transit.

    Yes. I want to ban cars too.

  Imagine being so car brained that you base personal freedom around it

    I honestly despise you for calling me “car brained”. That insult hurt me more than any other I’ve received. I want to protect pedestrians and cyclists from people driving cars under the influence. I want to limit driving people’s freedom to make life better for everyone. Fuck you.

      That’s honestly a very odd reaction, for what it’s worth I meant it lightheartedly.

      Of course I think pedestrians and cyclists also deserve safety.

      I would like to point out however that a majority of incidents are drunk drivers who do not already have a device like that in their car, so it’s a tad bit absurd to indicate your hard line for legalization is that when it would only apply after the fact anyway.

        Sorry, that was too rude, I just got really upset… It’s odd, I’ve never really gotten angry at internet comments until now.

        I just wanted to point out my single issue with weed, which is more an issue with car centric infrastructure.

    I don’t think this is “car brained”. They’re not saying anything around public transit, just that we need to have a test for DWI and weed. People shouldn’t be jailed for 30 years regardless of the presence of the test or not, but we do still need some other test. Otherwise I guarantee that “don’t drive while baked” will be the next infomercial you see in a few years.

      Missing the point a bit, we shouldn’t base legalization around if people are going to drive their cars on a substance.

  You can easily test if they’re in someone’s system with a saliva test, so your argument doesn’t make any sense.

  • HappyFrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨3⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Can you hook a saliva test to a car’s ignition system to only allow sober people to start the car?

  I am 100% on bike I see no argument on there. Just don’t smoke 3 day before you have to drive.

  They have mouth swabs they use now that can tell for smoking.

  source

  • HappyFrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Those can’t be used on the road and can’t be integrated into a car’s startup system.

    source

    • Skankhunt420@sh.itjust.works ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      They can be used when pulled over just like a breathylyzer (although this is the law in my state and I’m in USA all places may not have the same rules) but I do see what you are saying about hooking it up to the car like the breath machines.

      Man, someone could potentially make a lot of money to be the first ones to roll that out.

  Eh, you can still do a blood test in conjunction with a field sobriety test. Its not as cut and dry as something like alcohol, but to be honest it really shouldn’t be anyways considering how much more dangerous driving while drunk is.
