I agree with you to a point. BUT. Do drugs & alcohol cloud your judgement? Yes. Do drunk/high people do things they wouldn't do if they were sober? Yes. Do drugs & alcohol make people more relaxed & release their inhibitions? Yes. Do drugs & alcohol make you completely incapable of making a decision? NO. I know what you're saying, and I'm sure her being high contributed to her decision to chase someone else's car with her own, but it was her decision. Well thought out? Absolutely not. Taking into account the **** she'd be in if caught? No. But the drungs & booze didn't force her to drive. Plenty of people who are messed up choose not to. That's why it's called "under the influence." and not "under the control of."
