A dental X-ray now and then will not increase your chance of getting thyroid cancer. But past radiation treatment of your head, neck, or chest (especially during childhood) can put you at risk of getting thyroid cancer. Thyroid cancer can cause several symptoms: You may get a lump or swelling in your neck.
DUI and âdrunk drivingâ can be used as general terms interchangeably. Though DUI is a common legal term used by many states, New York does not actually use the term. In New York, there are two main âdrunk drivingâ charges: DWI and DWAI. DWI stands for âdriving while intoxicated,â while DWAI stands for âdriving while ability impaired.â There are some major differences between a DWI and a DWAI. Again, a DWI means that the driver is legally intoxicated, or drunk, with a BAC of at least 0.08 percent.
In most cases, .08, some places .05. In DC, your BAC can be 0, but if, when they ask you at 10 at night if you have been drinking, you say you only had a glass of wine at noon, you can still be charged with a DUI, and hundreds of people have not only been charged but convicted. If you're over age, you can drive IF you're under the legal limit. In Massachusetts (where I live), it's .08. That's like ONE drink for most people, and I'm 5'2, so that might even put me over. I would never, EVER say that it's ok to drive if you've been drinking.
