Default Re: The mighty traveller - is it legal in any state?

Quote:
o out of curiosity, why is it illegal:


* for the driver to consume alcohol while driving, provided they are under the legal blood alcohol limit?
a) Can you drink out of a can, stubby or long neck without taking yours eyes off the road; or do you drink your beer with a straw?

b) Another reason it slows down road side and random breath tests as the have to wait quite a while for the body to get rid of alcohol fumes from the mouth and throat.

c) People also used to use it as a way to get off DUI charges by sculling some beers after they had been pulled over.
