Drunk drivers
Frivolous lawsuits brought about by stupid people continue to abound in this glorious country. Now, a 79-year-old alcoholic is saying the Americans with Disabilities Act is being violated because she doesn't have enough breath to blow into a breathalizer-type device before driving. Meanwhile, another guy is saying he was so busy blowing into the device that he crashed into a tree.Excuse me, but why the hell are these people DRIVING in the first place? The breathless old woman would probably pass out due to lack of air after gasping when someone cut her off on the freeway. Plus, she's 79 and an alcoholic. I don't think people should be able to claim ADA discrimination on the grounds of stupidity.
As for the guy who crashed into a tree, he clearly has multi-tasking deficiencies to the point that he probably couldn't watch stoplights and press the brake pedal at the same time.
