Britons keen to live their life the way they choose could be raising their likelihood of needing the help of drink driving lawyers as they say no to interference from the government.
According to recent research from the Adam Smith Institute, many Britons don’t appreciate government health warnings – and would much rather take care of themselves.
The largest percentage of those surveyed believe they should be left to their own devices where food and drink are concerned – and not subjected to government-imposed recommended daily limits, or punishing prices on unhealthy foods and alcoholic beverages.
“Government has no right or mandate to single out some social groups and patronise them by restricting their free choices,” says Adam Smith Institute president Dr Madsen Pirie.
Almost half (48%) of all those surveyed in the study – across all social groups – rejected government guidance on food and drink, while only 22% welcomed recommendations on safe limits.
In separate research from internet bank first direct, it seems drink driving lawyers may be much more likely to be needed to defend claims relating to weekend indulgence.
The bank looked at the everyday trade-offs people make in order to protect their health and their finances – and found many cut back in the week, in order to enjoy their weekends to the fullest extent.
A fifth of their survey respondents claimed not to drink alcoholic beverages at all in the week, leaving them with their full weekly allowance of ‘safe’ units to party on Saturday and Sunday.
However, it’s worth remembering that consuming a large quantity of alcohol in a short space of time represents a binge, and isn’t healthy under any circumstances, even if you’ve had little or no alcohol for the rest of the week.
On top of that, it’s much more likely that large amounts of alcohol will impair your judgment and leave you over the legal driving limit – bringing about a need for the services of drink driving lawyers if you choose to get behind the wheel.
Motoring Offence Lawyers are drink driving lawyers with a difference, priding themselves on giving straightforward advice to anyone facing prosecution for a drink driving offence.
