For what it is worth a doctor--a plastic surgeon actually--tried to use Ambien as a defense. He had been drinking, had taken a diet pill, and Ambien along with something else. He hit and almost killed two girls walking on a sidewalk.
He tried his hardest to say the Ambien made him do it. The jury didn't buy it. He also tried to say since the girls were British they didn't know what side of the road to walk on. The jury didn't buy that either.
