oh, that is really sad. i still don't understand why god does that kind of stuff. i guess the quote, "god works in mysterious ways" is true.
 it seems like whenever a drunk driver gets in an accident, the innocent person is always the one that gets hurt...

That's bad news.
Sometimes people just make bad choices. Anyone can, and everyone has. I do think people should be more cautious, but still...Anyone can make a mistake. I hope she recovers well. |

This is a classic example of why I never have and never will drink and drive. I don't even let my friends drive after they have taken a drink. |

thats sad...but I have no sympathy for drunk drivers. I had a friend die because a drunk driver ran a red light and slammed into the side of the car snapping her neck. I hate drunk drivers, and I hate people who run red lights. My boyfriends mother and brother were hit by red light runners. at different times. lots of crap. DONT DRINK AND DRIVE DONT SPEED AND DONT RUN RED LIGHTS!

Yeah, this is why people shouldn't drink and drive.
Well, something similar happened to a girl in my town. She was drunk. Had her two friends in the car. It was snowy. She went off the hill, flipped it over into the river. Her friends were unconsice, so, they couldn't hold their head out of the water. They were both killed. One died instantly, the other died a few hours later. She wasn't invited to the one girls funeral. Now, because she was the driver, she has to do 200 hours of community service, so, she does her little speech that has her story in it around the schools in our town, except she can't miss school, and she has them done in 2 years, (this year is her second) and she has already done some, (i think 50) in a year,so, if she doesn't get them done, she will go to jail for 5 years. Nothing good comes from drinking and driving. I dont' care how you know how to "hold your liquior" or how well you drive. |
