Super Bowl Persuasive Speech
My brothers and I went to our friends house for a super bowl party. Instead of us taking an uber, we drove and while myself and my one brother were drinking more than my oldest brother, he still chose to have a total of 2 beers. If you drink alcohol while you eat, or after you eat, it won’t affect you nearly as much as if you were to drink it on an empty stomach. As you could imagine at the party there was food everywhere. It also takes about an hour for your liver to process one serving of alcohol. So over a four to five hour long super bowl, it is definitely safe to drive. Especially because he was drinking water as well. Why? Because he isn’t legally drunk. In the end my brother was able to enjoy his time and drive me home safely with no risk. …show more content…
As a general rule, people shouldn’t ever take the wheel if they are in any way diminished. Alcohol in small doses won’t do that, but being over the legal limit can.

One of my good friends Austin, was always the one drinking and partying a bit too hard most nights, but with age comes maturity. He is now 25 years old and he can now come out to a bar with friends and still have a beer, if it’s over an hour-frame, after that he is still able to function and safely drive home because his BAC didn’t exceed the legal limit.

Having the option to have one social beer at a bar is satisfying enough for many people. Rather than being the odd one spotted in a bar, not being allowed to drink because they are driving. People shouldn’t be restricted to that many rules as long as they are thinking and acting safe, following

    It is Superbowl Sunday. You have family and friends over to watch the game. The room fills with the aroma of pizza, wings, and nachos. You hear the sounds of laughter and talking; that all stops instantaneously; as the quarterback receives the ball and gets tackled,he does not get back up. Turns out the quarterback has severe brain trauma and will not be able to speak in complete sentences. This can be prevented with the end of the National Football League or NFL. The NFL is a repulsive greedy company that only cares about money and not about the wellbeing of others. It is time to shine the light on the NFL so people can see the malice that they create by shoving their problems under the rug. The NFL needs to be stopped before it…

    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. Very few people set out to drive while impaired by alcohol. Instead, alcohol impaired driving results from a combination of decisions about drinking and decisions about driving, which brings the two acts together. A person willing to allow impaired friends to drive often arises from the need for a ride in the absence of an available designated driver. This can happen because the driver did not think of the need for a designated driver in advance, there was no sober passenger present, or the other drinking passengers were unwilling to drive, even though less impaired. Some passengers are less concerned about their scenario of being injured as a passenger than about the possibility of being arrested as a drinking driver. About one fifth of the decisions to…

Simply because it is not seen as a taboo among young people in 157 countries that have the age requirement set to eighteen - zero.
