Drunk drivers...

So, last night the wife and I are sitting on the back deck, enjoying the rain and the cooler temperatures they brought, when around 0230, we heard a loud crash across the main road. We went over to check on them after calling 911, and found a young lady, around 20-25, in a new Land Rover, in the median, hitting the only tree on that stretch. She was physically fine, thanks to the SRS, but was so drunk that she didn't even know she destroyed the front of her vehicle. My wife had to argue with her to stay seated in the car until the authorities arrived...the young lady was trashed beyond being able to walk, let alone drive.

I don't think I've ever been drinking then drive home drunk. I have always arranged for a ride, or hung around a few hours til sober before thinking of driving. Due to my actions, I've never had a DUI or an accident after drinking.

What do these idiots think they're doing?? They're putting other lives at risk. If they want to be reckless and die from their actions, fine...just don't put other lives at risk!!
