Phoney excuses for road testing

I was going to write and research a post on the phoney excuses given by the Clark Government for the imposition of roadside drug testing, but Lindsay Mitchell has already done the job. Go read. As she concludes:
The evidence of drug-use causing accidents isn't compelling.
And check out her other writing; she's been producing good stuff recently.

  1. The idea that one can have a blood test forced upon them due to the size of their pupils scares the crap out of me.

  2. As I said on my blog the initial tests prove nothing. People could fail them without taking drugs or alcohol.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
