Never heard of nasal inhaler promoting alertness.

Is there any medical support for this or is it just another official crackpot idea ?

Probably a nice kickback from manufacturer.

what sort of unique mentality dreams up these absurdities that we see promoted here regularly.

Instead of adopting some common sense ideas that would improve things such as real policing and real driver education we get more of these hare-brained remedies.

next week we'll have a new one.

Nasal inhalers to keep you alert when you are suffering from alcohol overindulgence while driving. I can definitely see how this will reduce the death toll when roads are otherwise unpoliced over the NY week.

What is in them 'coke' - are they truly serious??????

And if you stick one up each nostril, you'll be twice as alert.

Anyway, I wonder if these things contain anything that will up your breath alcohol reading.

The magic hat of pointless and ridiculous mad and embarrassing playground initiatives at work again. When will this madness end?

What's next? Handing out M150 to bus drivers?

Along with a couple of Ya Ba Pills - The way these idiots are going I think they must all be on Ya Ba by now anyway. People taking magic mushrooms or LSD couldn't have come up with anything as stupid as the BIB.

It is quite the charming accessory. wai2.gifwai.gif

I've seen it a 1000 times...

Those photos are great, that is how I remembered my first visit years ago to Chiang Mai.

As for the cops promoting this, maybe it would be a good idea to change their hats to a long pointy one with a huge "D" on it, and have them stand in a corner.

Hang on. Make up your mind, is it crack, pot or a mixture of both with a little menthol thrown in. That would really keep you alert.
