hello there, chemist here....i concur with you completely in re: the driver's responsibility. my friend was admittedly in a different situation from someone who gets behind the wheel with a cocktail of alcohol and xanax. the ``valium defense'' i mentioned was, i believe, fair in that the punishment was reduced yet the offense was not forgiven solely because a person was out-to-lunch: if people could get away with anything just because they were taking their meds, we'd be living in quite a different world than one where the offender must take some responisbility from their actions. all the best, chemist
