From Paris to Lindsay, it almost seems to be an epidemic in Hollywood.  DUIs seem to be the new celebrity past time.  Has Hollywood gone crazy, or is it the norm?  Have you ever driven a car when you've had too much to drink?

I don't drink, so my answer is no.

When I was in high school the government in my country had a program where they name a certain percentage of girls within a certain age range ....angels...., and I was one of the "angels".... Well, not really but what the program was about was getting the angels, and a friend of theirs free bustickets home at night, and other non drinking and driving stuff. I guess this program really had a great effect on me, because if I drive I refuse to drink....something my grandmother shakes her heard at, while my husband appreciates it, because it means he's got a driver :) So, no I have not driven while I have had too much to drink....only my bike.

I had a cousin who was killed by a drunken Big-Rig Truck driver when she was just 17 years old. He was over 5 times over the legal limit and had been an alcoholic for most of his life. He lost control of his semi-truck on a highway while driving about 70mph. His big-rig blasted thru the center divider and went airborne. His semi-truck literally LANDED on my cousin's car killing her and her best friend instantly.

So, NO!! I would NEVER drink and drive....and I have NO SYMPATHY for people who do. I think it's one of the most irresponsible and unforgiveable things that someone can do! Especially rich & famous people like Paris Hilton. They can afford to hire a driver! There's NO NEED to drink and drive!!!!

I do not drink, so I have never driven drunk.

I refuse to drive if I have had a drink. If you plan, you can usually avoid it. It is a good habit to get in to, I think.

Nope, it one of my bigest pet peeves.
Heather W. Aug 13, 2007, 12:24am EDT
Nope I have too many idiot friends that have though

Never! I think it is the most irresponsible thing one can do. My friends love me simply for my designated driver quality some times. Oh, well.

I have but I don't. I once drove five minutes up and backk to the sotre to get smokes as I ran out while drinking. Dumbest thing to do but I did. I don't anymore.

Nope, I hope other people also don't drink and drive.
Shannon W Aug 13, 2007, 11:38pm EDT
No I haven't.... I can count the number of times I've drank on two hands.
Teresa W. Aug 14, 2007, 2:10am EDT
I don't drink either so the answer is no for me too.

did you expect a lot of affirmitives?
Yes, I have. I was pretty wasted too. I didn't realize how drunk I actually was until I blew through two red lights. Thankfully for me and the rest of the driving public it was 2:30 AM and the streets were vacant.
