    First: This isn't about morality. It's about NOT doing stupid things that will ruin or damage OUR sport as ATV enthusiasts. 3 wheelers got a bad rap for things just like this. Sidestepping the issue IS condoning the ban back in the day. Sticking your head in the sand isn't going to make the problem go away.

    Second: When the OP posted that he reinjured an old injury due to no brakes and driving drunk he opened himself up for this.

    "i resently screwed up my arm i busted earlyer this year because my brakes dont work and i was a little drunk "

    The OP made this about drinking when he posted the above sentence. He has also been lambasted enough and the situation was pretty much buried until you rode in here and said we should stick our heads in the sand and ignore the attitudes and bad behaviors that get our riding areas shut down, our atv's banned from sale, or other laws started by the power that be. Because they think that things like riding a 3 wheeler drunk are the norm, from seeing these actions in person, in print, or on message boards.

    "Apathy" You should look that up. It's the reason why we are in the hole we are in here in the United States. How do you feel about helmet rules? Should we throw all that aside as well? It's not really my business if you crash into someone with out a helmet, but the following flack could hurt my ability to ride my three wheeler due to your actions. I'm thinking you are the one who doesn't get the point.

    saying im making 3 wheelers look bad cause of this is just stupid i made my own choice when i kicked that motor over. i made my own choice when i tryed to do a donut when i was already going almost top speed i was in control of the machine not the other way around and in bc we dont have riding areas to get shut down we get to ride on every dirt road we can find if we get hurt its are own probem the way it should be every where

    Justifying drinking and riding is a losing battle on these forums. A lot of us have done it though, so i wont bust your balls. I agree with freedom though. If someone wants to get plastered and ride, go for it just don't hit anyone. If you kill yourself it is your fault. And if you are in a public area its no bueno at all, you could hurt someone else.

    Unfortunately most of us live in America.... The land where we really aren't as free as they lead us to be. Where if you hurt yourself on something (even while drunk) blame the machine!, and sue the manufacturer! Then stop the production of the machine!

    For the sake of trikes I'm sure everyone agrees Alcohol and bikes is a no no. Even if it is really fun.

    Neither were they.. That is exactly what I have been trying to say the whole time. It's not about what you or I think. It's about perceptions and what people do with them. Think 3 wheeler ban..
