    It seems apparent na sa Pinas di talaga isyu and drinking and driving. Is it really not and issue? Some will contend or even make the excuse na di naman prevalent and drunk driving mishaps dito. Is that true? Also cops may be ill equipped or under manned to take sobriety tests so i suppose it isnt a big deal to be driving intoxicated.

    How many bottles of ordinary beer or glasses of hard or wine would be tolerable you think? Or does it even matter given the scenario here?

    Do you drink and drive? Or have you ever even driven drunk?

    Broke my "no drinking and driving rule" a few months ago. Had 3 San Mig Lights with my wife and sis at Tiendesitas. I didn't feel woozy or anything so nag-drive pa rin ako pauwi to Santolan. Slower than normal nga lang kahit 3AM na. Siguro I am confident enough of the amount of alcohol it takes to impair my driving abilities. I was ready to take a taxi that time kung di ko na talaga kaya.

    My wife was counting cars out loud on the way home though

    I have never drunk and driven.

    That is why I am almost always the designated driver....

    Yup, sometimes 2...3...4...5...6...7...8 bottles of San Mig Lite, depende, pag walang laman ang tyan ilang bote lang uwi na, pag busog kaya maraming bottles ok pa rin judgement in driving

    the worst was 3 months ago. i was really drunk and intoxicated. after the session i traveled for 160kms away from home and that was early morning around 3am. i remembered i was travelling(fortunately less cars on the road), my car wiggled and almost hit the gutter but good thing i arrived home safe.

    dont wanna do it again

    Yup I do drink and drive, but only up to my limit. When Alam ko na natatamaan na ko I stop drinking na , water na lang, until I know I can handle to drive. Then I drink coffee before I drive home, steady driving speed 50-60 kph lang. Thats it.

    Strictly no alcohol for me, since I'm almost always the designated driver.

    Besides, I already have enough problems dealing with the effects of iced tea when I'm driving. :D

Honestly. Do you drink and drive?
