Drunk driving is a subject which leaves a very bitter taste in my mouth.
In 1989 my fiance was headed to my house with two of her friends four days before our wedding was to take place. She was driving her VW Golf convertable when a drunk driver strayed into her oncoming lane and killed all three of them. As is often the case, the drunk driver survived but with serious injury. His sentence? Five years in jail and a further fifteen years suspended sentence! I cannot tell you the self control it took not to murder him. Had it not been for the military and great support, in all likelihood I would have been in prison mys lf for murder.
People can laugh off the seriousness of drunk driving all they like but it is IMO one of the most selfish and careless crimes there are. If I see you are drunk and about to drive, no matter how big or badass you think you are I will do my best to stop you while I have cops on the way. I have already been in serious confrontations which have cost me "friendships".
To all those who think you're smarter than cops and are somehow above the influence of alcohol while behind the wheel, I say "fuck you, you peice of dispicable shit". I hope everytime you contemplate driving after a few there is someone like me nearby who isn't scared to stop you from potentially taking the lives of innocents.
This is the season when drunk driving skyrockets so please people, do humanity a favor, if you see someone about to drive drunk, don't think it's not your problem. One of your loved ones may be sharing the road with that person that very day - then it will be your problem.
