I keep reading references to the mysterious unnamed unidentified "elite" on these boards.
Who are these "elite"?
Maybe you don't go out much? Park in a clubs lot one night and watch people stumble to their cars, or swing off the light posts whooping like tarzan just before getting behind the wheel!

Your "opinion" does not hold up to the facts. Only cars where the people are caught "over the limit" get impounded. So simple remedy to that, " Don't drink and drive retards"
And as for "appearing stoned" As someone who has had more than their fair share of various drugs. Then if I looked stoned I probably am. No-one who actually had ant experience with them would say otherwise.
God Americans are such pussies nowadays. Winge winge, moan, moan. Your forefathers would not have stood up for you, they would have slapped you silly. Absolutely pathetic.

lol wrong again.. and again.
My "opinion" is based on 15+ years experience.. I have taken more POST DUI classes than I can count, worked "Sobriety, drivers license and safety" checkpoints.. passed voir dire as an "expert".. been there, done that.
To suggest only 'over the limit' drivers vehicles are impounded is factually retarded... what about a driver stopped under the influence of phencyclidine, opiate?, stimulant?.. there are NO legal limits to be over or under... there's no PCP breath machine or magic weed influence detector.
You think the police will let a dusted driver go because he's not over the alcohol limit?.. lol
www.americannewsnow.com...
"Modesto area police agencies readily say that drunken drivers aren't their only targets when they set up DUI checkpoints."
Unlicensed driver = 12500VC - a misdemeanor, meaning the driver is taken into custody. Storage authority = 22651(h) (1)VC When an officer arrests a person driving or in control of a vehicle for an alleged offense and the officer is, by this code or other law, required or permitted to take, and does take, the person into custody.
BTW 14601 relates to suspended or revoked license.. meaning the person is unlicensed.
Or 22651(p)VC "When the peace officer issues the driver of a vehicle a notice to appear for a violation of Section 12500, 14601, 14601.1, 14601.2, 14601.3, 14601.4, 14601.5, or 14604..."
..and guess what else?.. a license plate recognition device scans every plate rolling through checkpoint in real time.. any indication of want or warrant = detention, possible arrest, vehicle impound.

yeah well done so when your house is being broken into or your car has been stolen you phone the cops and you get the message sorry but no one can come to you all the sqaud cars are busy you wont have that attitude it will be where were the cops when this happened or that happened. Well they were staying in the bar parking lots trying to get people for drink driving when it only take 6 or more cops depending on check point in one spot rather than having the whole force out trying to get them. Obviously you think your country has a heap of cash in it's budget to employ more cops too hey well i think your in a wonder land pal and hope you wake up from it.what is 5 seconds of your time worth? Could it be worth your life or someone elses who could be cleaned up by a drunk driver.
We have had them over here in Australia for years do you want to know how many times I have been pulled up at one in 14 years of driving? Well the answer is twice not a huge number is it as i said before in a previous post you have bigger problems than waiting the time it takes at a set of traffic lights to give a sample of breath.
