next time I'm down that way:
A word of caution before you head out for the long Memorial Day weekend: It's also No-Refusal Weekend. Which means? Well, if Dallas police pull suspect you're drinking and driving, you'll be stuck with a butterfly needle attached to a vacuum-packed container, and two vials' worth of your blood will taken and tested. And, no, you can't refuse the test; hence the name, as discussed in our cover story on the very subject last month.
And would you be surprised what group is right in the middle of this?
The program, which the DPD's been testing since last Memorial Day weekend, has proven to be most everything Mothers Against Drunk Driving, the Dallas Police Department and the Dallas County District Attorney's Office hoped it would be.
So once again MADD is 'working with the police' and screwing people over. "...you can't refuse the test"? Just exactly what kind of bullcrap is this? And in Texas of all places?
As Tam puts it, Dallas, TX is an unlikely addition to the list of places I wouldn't spit on if they were burning.
And, as I say, next time I'm down that way, Dallas will be avoided.
