Solve the problem by not diu. Do you get drunk and drive? You realize that you’re operating a multi-ton machine that could kill people with one bad decision?

Actually, dui is "driving under the influence." Could be alcohol or THC or anything that alters your ability to safely operate the vehicle. Such as "smoke some joints."

I’m aware, which is why I included it in the post. I’m just answering this person’s question

Then why do you use marijuana and drive? It’s almost the same thing. You were obviously too under the influence to make safe decisions. You should rethink the decision to dui.

So why did you comment again?

Because 1.5 is not multiple.

I think “multiple” in this context means more than one, but integers only.

Multiple is a relative word. In a non-mathematical context such as this, it means having several of. Most vehicles are multi-ton beasts. Sedans, which are on the smaller side of vehicles, are still massive and heavy. 1.5+ is multiple in my opinion. Either way, why are you getting pedantic when the issue I brought up is based around the life-threatening decisions of op? Something way over a ton and a half, probably more, is extremely dangers moving over 15 mph. Nevermind if the driver is impaired to the point of not understanding their circumstances.
