i went to a wake and a funeral of this girl that im friends with her brother died in a car accident, i didnt really know the brother. but it was sad he was 18 years old and got killed by some dumb drunk driver.
its sad he graduated with honors and was going to go to the university.
stupid drunk drivers, all drunk drivers are dumb as sh*t.

i think if somebody gets pulled over for DUI or something they should immediatly get thrown in prison for 5 years.

I have to agree. They are tightening laws, (here anyway) but I still don't think they are strict enough.
Only bad thing is, then we would have a SERIOUS over crowded prison problem. Not that I think that is a reason to NOT be harsher, something needs to be done.....
Sorry to hear about the loss...how sad, it sounds like he had a bright future ahead of him...:(

You're lenient. My wife and I have no patience when it comes to this.
Book them as hard as you can, they are only showing that they don't give a $h|t about anyone on the road..
I'll stop myself now before I start to rant..

I know how you all feel.
In her early sixties, my mother was knocked down on a pedestrian crossing by a drunk driver, had both of her legs smashed, spent 3 months in hospital.
I don't really know what happened to the driver, he was charged, I think he lost his licence, maybe he's reformed or dead by now. Mum's life has been harder walking with a caliper on one leg, but just to spite him, she's still going at 86 years of age.

In most states, the DUI laws have penalties exceeding 5 years in prison. In this case, we would also be talking about vehicular manslaughter which carries a much stiffer penalty than 5 years.

If you get arrested for DUI in New York, they impound and auction off your car no questions asked. It is a HUGE deterent around here. They should start doing that around the country.
