Get caught doing this the first two times in Texas and you'll face misdemeanor charges along with a lot of court costs, fines and probably restricted driving priveleges.

Driving Under The Influence

Drivers in Longview, Kilgore, Tyler, Liberty City, Dallas, Austin, and other areas of Texas continue to drink and drive or drug and drive. When irresponsible people do this they are putting innocent people's lives in jeopardy who may be on the road at the same time. It's okay to go out and celebrate, have a drink with friends, and socialize, but you've got to know when to stop.

If anyone is on prescription medication, they should know if it is going to impair them in any way, especially when it comes to operating a motor vehicle. It's a known fact that illegal drugs can severely impair your thought process and reaction time so you definitely shouldn't be behind the wheel if you've chosen to take them.
