The fact is that drunk riders can get sick in your vehicle. Watch the situation and if you think they are feeling sick, give them water and a vomit bag. If it nevertheless happens, finish the ride, turn off drive mode, drive somewhere where you can safely stop and take several photos of the damage before you clean it up and destroy the evidence. Uber will reimburse for the cleanup, but you have to give them evidence of what happened. If you go ahead and clean up before taking pictures, there’ll probably be not much damage to see.…
We’re taught to believe what is morally wrong and right to lead our lives. And in doing so, it should allow us to live life based on our morals free from the constrictions of ethical laws brutally enforced upon us. Although James Dillard, a medical resident, acted selflessly to save a drunk man’s life, looking back on it, he regrets risking his future as a doctor to save the man, a selfish act. Dillard’s moral standards as an almost qualified doctor to save the drunk man’s life were morally right.…

It was hypothesized that drinking/driving programs should constitute a major type of program based solely on the program content (Goodstadt, personal communication, November 10, 1989). These programs emphasize an individual's responsibility in alcohol-related accidents or deaths, personal safety relative to driving with someone who has been drinking, and responsibility for providing safe transportation for friends who have been drinking (e.g., designated drivers). Only 10 drinking/driving programs were located. Within this subgroup, there were five different types of programs: KO, KO with fear tactics, K+A, SI , and CLS programs. Surprisingly, the effect sizes ranged from -0.18 to 0.30, showing extreme heterogeneity; this indicates that other…
In conducting a national analysis of the hypothesis on the effectiveness of the strictness of drunk driving laws, a one-tailed correlation test will be conducted to determine if a negative correlation exists between the two variables. Before conducting the actual statistical analysis, a scatter chart was made in order to help visualize the relationship between the variable. As can be seen in the scatter plot, there is indeed a negative relationship between the variables. However, the relationship is difficult to visualize without the use of a line of best fit which shows the downward trend of the relationship. It works in such a way that as x value or the strictness factor increases, the y value or drunk driving death rate decreases.…
He had only been playing for about two years, but he was as skilled, if not better than people who had played for twice as long. We soon realized why, because instead of playing video games or sports, he just played guitar all the time. From sunrise until sunset, he was either eating or playing guitar, filling our entire house with either classic rock, or melodic songs that he had written himself. At any point in time, he would rather be playing guitar, which became evident after we started getting his grades back.…
