Re: Random Drug/Alcohol Testing
Where are you going to draw the line? I can go a full race weekend without any alcohol, no probelm, but can others safely do the same without their BP meds, depression meds, un-diagnosed high BP and a whole list of others? Zero tolerance to me means zero on all the other factors that could cause a dangerous situation and that includes excessive heat and poor track conditions. You can't make the world perfectly safe in any situation. And you never will and still have any individual freedom. Every morning when you wake up and take that first step out of bed you put your life in danger to some degree. I worry more about the guy or girl in the other lane that dosen't have a clue about maintaining a race car than I do somebody that had 6 beers the night before. Sure, alcohol and drugs impare judgement, but if you don't have any common sense or knowledge of what you are doing (judgement) to begin with you can be just as dangerous.
