Reckon she would make more money divorcing him.
Wayne Rooney arrested for drink driving | Two-year driving ban
- Thread starter .Rossi
- Start date
Maybe he is like the queen and doesn't carry money with him.
While he's a twat. I expect he has an insurance policy where he is insured on other vehicles.
Not for much longer.
I simply think it's effects vary widely from person to person and also the weed itself. I feel completely fine while driving, albeit a lot more cautious.
Yup that's about right.
You are breaking the law same as drink drivers and let's hope you never hurt anyone.
This.
It's just as well we didn't spend all summer looking for a centre-forward and never ended up signing one, otherwise we would be relying on Rooney to score the goals when his minds likely to be elsewhere.
Jesus, I thought you were smarter than that
Usually I go along with some of your views in the CE forum, but this is just stupid
I agree that weed makes everyone more cautious rather than more confident (as with alcohol), but I would advise you not to drive under the influence of weed.
It does affect your reaction time, and you could still injure someone (or worse) at 30mph, even at 20mph, especially a little kid, who are small and more delicate to injury, think about that.
If you wanna get stoned and travel on wheels - do it on a push bike if you must, don't involve a motor vehicle into the equation, there's literally no need. Think of the worse case consequence mate, and think of the best - clear mind, and money saved from less weed smoked.
Or get a push bike and get some exercise as well.
Doubt you'll take any notice, but I hope you do.
Whether you feel fine is irrelevant really, that doesn't stop it from impairing your ability to drive. As with drink driving it's an extremely stupid, selfish and cnutish thing to do.
Also, if you're caught it won't matter a jot whether there's even the slightest evidence of impairment.

It's not really about your ability to feel normal while under the weed. If you are ever in an accident, let's say because a biker without lights makes a mistake and strays onto your right of way, the first thing police will want to do is a blood test. Whether you are impaired or not is irrelevant. You will end up looking at a possible conviction for involuntary man slaughter, and your life will be completely different from that point forward.
So yes, think.
In fairness to myself, I'm not claiming that alcohol doesn't seriously impair reflexes and judgement.
I'm just wondering if there's any evidence that the small intake represented by a blood alcohol level of .2 significantly increases the risk of accident. People, individually or collectively, are not rational, and have a tendency to go to extremes.
Or... imagine those blindly defending him coming up with different types of scenarios that would excuse his behaviour.
Whilst I agree you need proof to damn somebody, equally, in certain situations, going the total opposite way is not the way to go as you can end up looking foolish.
You're advocating driving under the influence, which you have stated as affecting your driving ability. I care not which is worse or how it affects anyone. I'm simply pointing out that everyone affected by anything can state they think they're fine. Whilst it's against the law for a reason.
He was on a night out and tried to drive home at 2am. This is what' s being reported. There's not much room for manoeuvre there.
I'd bet he's done it a few times before too. Not many just do it out of the blue do they?
It's really stupid to be drinking publicly (there's photos of him with fans that night), then hopping into a car when you're Rooney, isn't it? Way more chance of someone reporting you if they see you getting into a car and falling into any potential lurking paparazzi's lap. Just stupid all round.

According to some study I read before, an average drunk driver in the US has drunk driven on around 80 occasions prior to their first arrest and a third of those arrested are repeat offenders.
I don't normally smoke up and drive. But I have tried it and was merely pointing out that it's safer than alchohol. Point taken. Cheers.
Why is this being posted on here so much ?it's not Rio's account
Well done moving your own goalposts. We get it, all drugs are outlawed where you are from and this is probably still the devils lettuce to you. I dont believe anyone has said it is a good idea to be under any sort of influence when driving, no need for the pitchforks.
Sorry but where's my pitch fork? My goal posts are secure thanks. I must assume you've had a few toots today, as it's affecting your ability to comprehend.
Then he should get an uber.
I do agree with you on that, and didn't mean to sound preachy, everything you've said in here I actually understand your points and you've come across like a sound fella.
Stoned people are generally good people, quiet people, and gentle people (certainly compared to alcohol, by far). And like I said, push bikes and weed can be a truly wonderful thing.
You just don't wanna feck around with motors and reaction times, the consequences are just so deceivingly huge.
4? Try more like 7?
I bet he pushed the cops out of the way 'cos he wanted to take the breathalyser himself.
He also told the coppers he'll take all the penalties
Still funny as fcuk though.
This is one thing I also can't understand. You're in the spotlight. Tabloids are just waiting for something like this. If you really want to take the night off, just have a private party, drink and go home in the morning.
Or I don't know wear a Batman suit... How daft he looked on few occasions, maybe he would go for the second option.
I hear they pulled him over because he kept passing over to the right side of the road.
There's a few bars and restaurants in and around Hale, Altrincham, Wilmslow that are frequented by footballers and the owners/managers have learned to be discreet and act as chaperones. In turn, said footballers keep coming back. Everyone's happy.
See Wayne, this is what happens when you go off-piste - there is nobody looking out for you.

I would like to point out that this is absolutely not how it works.
Face plastered all over the papers and the woman has already sold her story to the Sun.
Idiot.
Idiot.
So if the papers are right it wasn't even his car he was driving but some strangers who he had no insurance on. Ridiculous.
I heard he didn't say a word in his police interview.
Silent domination.
Silent domination.
Also looks like Colleen will want an explanation.
The full quotes from the woman he was with
Won't somebody think of the car?!
He's always seemed to display self destructive behaviour with sex, booze and gambling. If he doesn't seek help his post it will get very messy.
United will have protected him as much as possible over the years. He's out on his own now and i fear he'll get worse. But hopefully this will be a wake up call

So idiotic.
Hopefully he's learned a lesson.
Driving while drunk is completely unacceptable. Should be heavily punished IMO.

Is this a woman he knows or someone he picked up? It's a bit weird.
