| I have to agree with all the posts against DUI & Drunk drivers...I am one of many in the EMS field that has responded and treated both the "victim's--people who are DUI and the unlucky ones that have been the "true victim" of drunk drivers or ppl that are under the influence of an illegal substance.* It's not a pretty site to see a person or persons, who have severe trauma and the chances of survival is nil.* It's unnerving to hear the love ones scream and cry loudly while you are trying to help the injured.* And then hear the KHP, SO or any law enforcement tell the family, sorry they didn't make it or when a member of the family comes up to you and ask, "Are they going to ok when you know that they're not.* You try to comfort them with words that you know may not be true because you want them to have some hope.I was on the receiving end a few years back on the day after Christmas, when I had both the KHP and SO, who came to my home to tell me that my brother was killed by DUI.** So stuff shit, when you say that the real victims are the ones that come out of a bar after a night of drinking and are being "picked on" by the LE.* I just hope that I don't have to pick up your sorry ass some night, after you've been drinking and caused an accident.
My daughter is the president of her SADD chapter at her school and she definitely one that takes her leadership to heart and keeps students informed about it's OK to say NO to drinking & driving and how to deal with peer pressure and provide the students with tools to deal with these issues. It needs to start somewhere, if not at home then in the schools.
People who decide that they want to go out and party then get behind the wheel and drive, get pulled over and fail the soberity test,**SS, I won't be one to feel sorry for your ass when you spend time in jail.* Maybe just maybe, that will bring some common sense to you and you get a DD. Give your keys to someone that hadn't anything to drink.* You and others will be a lot safer.
And that's all I have to say about that!!
