[quote=Anonymous]Treat it as a wake-up call. We all make mistakes, but it just so happens your mistake could have had really bad consequences for you and others. Luckily, it didn't.

I'm male and was out to dinner one night with a few single male friends in their early 30's. About half of them had earned DUIs, though none had been a repeat offenders. Usually the DUIs were for being slightly over the limit like 0.09 or 0.10. No one crashed into anyone else, though one did take a turn too fast and crashed his own car (no injuries).

I remember the question I failed on my MD driving test years ago. The first thing alcohol affects is not your reflexes but your JUDGMENT. So I'm not surprised people drive drunk -- they are incapable of making the decision not to, since alcohol has impaired their ability to make a good decision.

Seems to me the best way to handle this is to put an ignition interlock (have to blow to start the car) on all cars, but that's also presuming all drivers are guilty so the public is not ready for that.[/quote]
