Driver kills two more

[Aggie_Ama]

Yes it is hard to say I am too upset to drive... When my grandfather died I knew I couldn't drive, I had just sat on the floor in the middle of a Lowe's (my job at the time) and starting crying hysterically. I left my car at work and let my fiance drive me home and then another hour to meet my parents. I did not drive myself anywhere for five days.

I wasn't that smart when my dad told me he had colon cancer. I drove home crying only focusing on getting home. I could hardly compose myself, was borderline hyper-ventilating and didn't even remember the drive. It was one of the stupidest things I could have done. On that occasion it is scary to think how easy it would have been for me to not notice a pedestrian, cyclist or motorcycle. But we are human and we do make poor choices. DUI is not a stupid choice it is a crime.

I do agree that we should get a better handle on the DUI issue. in this circumstance (same teen kills 3 cyclists) apparantly the case was sealed because he was a minor on the first offense. Because I can't find anything on his punishment....

And if it is like Texas they will not be able to mention it in his new trial or punishment phase. Many times this will lead to a reduced charge or sentence being handed down by the jury.

DUI is not a stupid choice it is a crime.

Unlike some other stupid choices, DUI is both.
