12-year-old commits DUI and Grand Theft Auto

Police in Lincoln, Nebraska arrested a 12-year-old with a BA of .14.

He stole a Honda from the front of a convenience store and had three accidents.

Unbelievable. Link to article

Well, he's certainly getting an early start there.

Does he not know this is exactly why they include drunk driving in GTA IV? So you don't have to do it in real life. >_>

There will always be the dumbass who takes pop-culture a little too liberally...

Wait...is that Jack Thompson I hear? hold on guys...I can hear him saying 'Ban Grand Theft Auto V...NOW!'

Oh god.. now people are gonna fight to ban GTA again. th3warr1or

.08 BAC is the Yank limit for drunk driving. I can drive quite well on over twice that in the UK, but the draconian Yanks have their statutes and primitive limitations...your loss...

The only reason why boozing and driving is so explicitly related in the US is because it is impossible to be mobile-bound in the US without an automobile- an issue which does not affect most Europeans. Public transportation is well established and reliable across Europe, but in the US it is a haphazard affair. Unreliable at best, and assumed as poor trash transport as opposed to general transport as it is in Europe and many other parts of the world.

[QUOTE="coolkid93"] I agree with what you said. As soon as someone does something like that, they try to ban the gta. coolkid93

[QUOTE="psychobrew"]It's going to be a long time before he drives again. What's up with the difference in legal blood alcohol levels between thos under 21 and those over? I mean, if you're blood alcohol is high enough to impare your ability to drive, it's high enough to impare it no matter how old you are.I_Build_Coffins
