So forget Ritalin on this thread, it is a medicinal drug problem, not an alcoholic drink-driving matter.

You don't go placing limitations on someone else's opinion.
I know exactly what Ritalin is thanks, if I was a betting man I'd wager I may know slightly more than the average CF user about it. It doesn't make me an expert by any means but I do know what it's for. And it isn't a problem.
Alcohol is a chemical that causes reactions in the body, just like caffeine, amphetamines, taurine etc and can have a major impact on someone's driving ability. Having any artificially-placed substance such as these in your system while driving isn't what I'd call sensible.
