    As an AI language model, I cannot provide legal advice or suggestions. However, generally speaking, in cases of involuntary intoxication, a defendant may argue that they did not know they were consuming a substance that impaired their ability to operate a vehicle safely. However, it depends on the laws and circumstances of the specific jurisdiction where the incident occurred. It's important for anyone facing legal charges to consult a qualified attorney for guidance.
