    Drink driving is a factor in about 20% of all fatal car accidents due to over drinking. Even if you have a blood alcohol content of 0.05 (the legal limit) it still doubles your risk of having an accident, a 0.08 blood alcohol content there is a 7 times risk of having accident.

    Fear and loathing has birthed an insolent child of violence, this child that so dearly receives an overbearing amount of attention strives to overpower the celestial nature of unity and peace.
