Yeah, Oxford used this bullshite to ban Uber from Oxford, when really they wanted students to drive drunk in order to get money from their parents. Now Mississippi state legislature made it legal everywhere, and the OPD is now fricked for financing, and I couldn't be happier that their bloated police department that has like 5 cops per citizen is now going to have layoffs due to no DUIs coming in.


I didn't know this. This makes me very happy reading this.

Yeah the money that's lost to the courts, law firms, all the classes you have to take.... it's become its own little industry.

So they banned a valuable consumer service because they were losing DUI revenue?

Loss of ticket and DUI revenue is going to be the greatest obstacle to self driving cars.


It will still be illegal to be in a self driving car while drunk, but the police will lose probable cause to pull over drivers and see if they are drunk.
