Once I was in an accident. Sober and all. No one got injured but the experience sure gave me a shake. I would never have forgiven myself if anything happened to my kids. To drive while drunk is just inexcusable. Hopefully Vidal learns from this episode. He should also take the necessary punishment if it was him driving.
He is so lucky that that he didn't injure himself, or more importantly, any innocent victims out there who could have been seriously hurt or killed because of his stupidity and irresponsibility.
I love him as a player, but what a fucking moron. An absolute moron. The damage he could have caused because of this.

Just because a lot of people do it, doesn't make it right.
And if this comes across as someone who has been directly affected by the recklessness of a drunk driver, you are correct.
Unless there is another person on this forum who saw one of their best friends die in their arms when they were 16, because he happened to be on the left side of the sidewalk

majority of people out there do drive under the influence, the hypocrisy here is that rather than deal with the over-commercialization of liquor, which is the real cause, we go for the consumer.
It's a very difficult subject IMO. The funniest part of it all is that alcohol leads to you making bad decisions. But we ask of people who are under the influence to make the right decision in choosing not to drive. I can honestly say I have never driven a vehicle while drunk. But I've seen so many in my environment do it that I cannot really judge Vidal for it either.

Of course it's not right. I can't say I agree with it or that I think he should not be punished. Clearly drinking and driving is not acceptable. But people tend to go into overdrive and make drunk drivers out to be murderers, while the truth is lots of people drink and drive.
of course it's not right, but legislation is silly here, the obvious solution would be to curb commercialization
it's difficult because drinking culture in engrained so deep; drinking ought to be highly regulated, i mean not to sound too cliche but in what rational world is weed illegal but alcohol, not.

They are thinking to kick Vidal off the national team

I'm sure there are enough people who risk it after 2-4 pints down the pub, I know one guy who did it a few weeks back.

And there is Law to punish him into jail.
