This really wasnt the greatest situation. I had been drinking heavy yesterday and decided it was fine to drive because i was like 7 or so blocks from my house. Just go in a straight line and thats all. MY vision was not impaired. Nothing horrible like that.
Anyways as i was pulling out of the parking lot i noticed that my speedometer wasnt even close to working. It didnt even budge. I didnt get it. So i guess its broke now. It was working fine earlier.
Do you guys think i will be fine driving it today and tomorrow? I was thinking perhaps getting it fixed sunday because i have shit to do.
Like i have work today and it's not that far from me. I want to see this girl and all that and have drinks around town but i am perplexed.
hmm

jsut don't go faster than any one else around you. or if there's no one to pace yourself by, then just "guesstimate"

IMO regardless as to how much one drinks it all depends on the effects you feel you are undergoing due to the alcohol. My tolerence is higher as i drink alot.
If you meet the following criteria you are ok to drive: No spinning vision No double vision No wandering eyes Good balance Good motor skills
but that is not the debate. Perhaps i should call auto repair and see how long this would take to get fixed and how much it would cost.

if you drink more next time you drive, the speedometer wouldnt really matter too much. that is unless you want to tell this girl how fast you were going when you were drunk, i'm sure that would really impress her.

yeah thats what i was thinking. But if i was say 50 miles or more away from my house and i was returning at like 3-4am that would be difficult due to the lack of traffic

Virginpusher: If your speedometer is not moving, it's because your speedometer linkage cable has gone kaput (if you have an older car) if your car is newer, then it does not have a direct linkage, but is computer controlled (even if you have analogue dials). I replaced my wife's on her 1988 Nissan Sentra ages ago (went to a junkyard and found one for around 30USD). Took about an hour to install it.
