well, sad to see things like that.
And this is news regarding a local drunk driver going on court today:

The thing is... some times... you don't know IF you are over the limit. Some people THINKS they are still good and can control the car. But part of being drunk is being in denial.
And I've seen friends leaving dinner after wine pairing (plus more) and leaving in their own car. They think they are NOT that drunk but you never know. May be they would be OK if nothing sudden happen on the road. But most drunk driver would be slower to react to sudden change on road condition. -> accident.
It's simple now. If you drink (no matter what), don't drive. And if you like to fine dine and drink wine with it, arrange transportation. Budget that as part of the fine dining experience. Rent a hotel room in DT to stay for events like Xmas party or special celebrations. |
