Very interesting. I had not considered that could be a factor.baldeagle wrote: I was foreman on a petit jury that convicted a woman under A. The question for the jury is, what is the normal use of one's mental or physical faculties when under the influence. In her case she was convicted because she was driving erratically but most importantly because she was returning two friends, one of whom was passed out, back to their cars so they could drive home. If she had the normal use of her faculties, she would have called a cab for her friend who obviously would not be able to drive safely.

Bigity - To answer your question directly. No, the laws concerning drinking/intoxication were not changed.bigity wrote:I may have missed this in all the OC/campus carry stuff - but was the existing code updated to clarify if you cannot drink or just cannot be intoxicated when concealed carrying?
