That is what happens when you are rich a spoiled. No shortage of DC kids driving aroud DC drunk. I was one of them. Luckily everyone survived.

To say that DC is a non car city is either niave, or stupid.  DC is a far cry from NYC.[/quote]

There's no such thing as a "non-car city" (as you've pointed out).  I know people who own cars in NYC.  Sure, it's a dumb thing to do, and unnecessary, but there you go.  Plenty of folks manage to live in DC without owning a car.  To argue otherwise is "either naive, or stupid."[/quote]

I think the point is- if you live in DC, it's much easier to avoid driving drunk than it is if you live in the suburbs.  If you're a reckless idiot and drunk driving doesn't bother you, then you have just as much opportunity wherever you live.  However, if you're a responsible adult, it's much easier to jump in cab or take the Metro if you live in DC or close in.  It also makes it much easier to fetch your car and get to work the next day.

Regardless of where you live, you should make plans to ensure that you and everyone else on the road, makes it home safe when you're drinking.  If this is too tough to do in the 'burbs and you regularly go out, you should either quit drinking or move closer in so that you can get home without driving drunk.

OP-If your DH has already had a DUI in the past and he continues to drive drunk, he either has a big problem or is stupid.  He will get caught again and this time, being a 2nd offense, will be worse than the first.  If he keeps doing this, there is no possible good outcome.[/quote]
