Vodka: "a common choice of later-stage alcoholics because they think it is easier to hide"

A ‘Perfect Mother,’ a Vodka Bottle and 8 Lives Lost

Excerpt:

Consider a 2004 federal Department of Transportation manual on detecting drunken drivers: Citing a Fort Lauderdale, Fla., study, the manual suggests that for every person the police actually arrest for drunken driving, the intoxication of three other drivers who are stopped goes undetected because officers did not suspect they were drunk.

  1. Vodka or peppermint schnapps. My mom used to work in a hospital with an alcohol rehab, and those were the things people REALLY watched out for. You couldn't tell by the smell whether someone had broken rules or not.

    Pretty sad.....
