As one of the commenters said, "About time to take back our
Constitution from MADD." Not just MADD, but also a number of other
knee-jerk reactionaries who have been distorting driving law the last
few decades or so...

Most excellent. Will NM consider exporting those judges to Ohio?

This is all about the milking the cash cow.
I don't know which state started it, but apparently, they totally forgot
that "D" in DUI/DWI stands for "DRIVING", not PARKED!

The cash cow only sees that a person is sleeping it off inside a vehicle.
So therefore, guilty of the crime. What ever happened to "Due Process" and
the assumption, "Innocent until proven guilty"?

So why don't cops just go around knocking on doors and testing everyone in
the home? After all, if one gets drunk in his own home, he COULD possibly
go out and drive.

The fark thread on this indicated that the new thing is for people to
sleep in the trunks of their cars, locking themselves inside. This way a
passing cop can't see them sleeping it off.
