I'm confused. What does that have to do with drunk driving?

We have WMA's here that allow usage of the trails during certain times of the year. Too many kids were getting wasted and wrecking (some really bad). The FWC stepped in and first closed all trails. They then banned all alcohol from the areas. Campers and families were upset that they couldn't have a drink or two at camp around the fire. FWC decided to revise their decision and now alcohol is only allowed at camp. If you are caught with an open container, even your passenger, instant DUI. The accidents are now back to virtually 0.
Sorry if anyone thought I was singling them out. But irrisponsibility runs rampant and always ends up with a negative effect on our hobby. If you think someone has had too much, take their keys, either willingly or forcefully. Your friends may be mad at you for a couple days but atleast they'll be here to be mad at you.

HA, that reminds me of a time way back in the day where I had this stupid friend that decided to get stupid drunk and try to drive. I took her keys so she got mad and walked about 6 miles up the road to her house to get a different car. She passed out about the time she made it home and slept on her front porch. lol
