Though I will say sometimes being an idiot can be fatal. I feel bad for the person who wasn't acting illegal but allowing your friend to drive you while they are drunk is pretty idiotic and sadly she paid with it with her life.
Of course the little shit stain decides to actually fight the charges despite there being no doubt about her guilt.
Now can we get serious about drunk driving laws? How many chances should someone get before they get taken out of society? I'm not calling for the death penalty but I'm in favor of three strikes your out and you are legally never allowed to drive again. Choose to drive again and you are put in prison for life. Everyone is now safer since a menace to society is off the roads.
More aggressive police work is needed. Stake out bars. You see someone stumbling out at 1:00 AM let them get into the car and as soon as they pull out arrest them. This isn't complicated folks. Its just a matter of how much money and resources we should spend on getting selfish monsters that kill people. On a daily basis people die from a nearly 100% preventable cause. Yes I realize harsh penalties won't eliminate all deaths but it will eliminate a huge percentage of them.
Back to the original story - thank goodness Mr. Byrum didn't get killed as well. Frankly that was a matter of luck... I guess Smart cars do save lives sometimes.
