“The OR of car crashes associated with COVID-19 was comparable to driving under the influence of alcohol at legal limits or driving with a seizure disorder.
Conclusions
The study suggests that acute COVID-19, regardless of Long COVID status, is linked to an increased risk of car crashes presumably due to neurologic changes caused by SARS-CoV-2. These findings underscore the need for further research into the neuropsychological impacts of COVID-19. Further studies are recommended to explore the causality and mechanisms behind these findings and to evaluate the implications for public safety in other critical operational tasks. Finally, neurologists dealing with post-COVID patients, should remember that they may have an obligation to report medically impaired drivers.”

Not sure if that many of todays middle aged would get the Ford Anglia reference - these were already rare when we were young boys!
The doctor would be better off as well as pointing out health risks from #cocaine (which many men don't care about) reminding them its illegal, easily detectable via swabs at roadside #DUI checks, and if you are caught with it in your bloodstream you won't be driving anything for a year or more..
Alcohol breathalyzer tests can have a 10 percent false positive rate if the person administering the test has just used hand sanitizer.

So grubby police are safer; good to know.

Il y a un gros avantage à cette chaine de la #DUI c'est qu'il n'y a que 3 vidéos . dont celle de Fleur Pellerin, secrétaire d'état au numérique à l'époque qui nous explique comment elle envisage de "faire des EPN des lieux clés de formation, d’innovation, et de cohésion sociale, afin que tous les citoyens deviennent acteurs — et même initiateurs — des transformations numériques à venir."
Unbeknownst to many, Pete Hegseth was actually the first appointee from DUI, also known as the Department of Unmitigated Idiocy.
Driving with a case of COVID raised the odds of having a car crash about as much as being at the legal threshold of DUI or running a red light, according to an analysis of pandemic-era public health and transportation records from seven states.From https://www.axios.com/2025/04/24/driving-covid-higher-crash-risk
The Seagull Knows: Notes on a Constipated Discipline
The opening moment of the workshop on Methodological Strategies for Real-Life Theorising was unintentionally profound. A story of a seagull crieing above the glass façade of the Blavatnik School of Government - a building that stands as a temple to the #deathcult of the last 40 years of #neoliberal culture. In hindsight, that seagull metaphor may have been the wisest participant at the event.The sessions that followed offered a painful reminder of just how entrenched and constipated […]https://hamishcampbell.com/the-seagull-knows-notes-on-a-constipated-discipline/

44% duties on #SriLanka, already reeling under Chinese #debtDiplomacy, will drive it even closer to #China.

#Facebook #opsec #fail - rave "banter" group puts up video of a good looking young lass in England at a petrol station who ended up with empty baggie that held her #partydrugs stuck to her back as she fills up the car. Registration mark of car in full view.
To be fair some lads *did* point out sharing the video could be problematic, but *no-one* picked up on the fact they've essentially grassed her up for potential #DUI (any cop or bootlicker now has her vehicle number plate)
