DUI, my least favorite thing


Well I was just chatting with Jeff, the Stang69 version. He told me that his sister in law was involved in a terrible accident and was KILLED by a drunk driver. I don't know any more really than that. He will probably not be on the board here for a few days. I would like to be the first to send out my thoughts to Jeff, one of my only real reefin' buddies that I actually know in person. I hope that it gets better for you and Pattie soon

Jeff, I am soooo sorry to hear about your loss. I wish cars came equiped with a breathlizer or something. If it detected alcohol, it would not start. My hugest prayers and hugs to you both!

That technology already exist and has for some time. Its usually mandated to be installed on your car if your lucky enough to get the right judge when you get arrested for DUI. Now think about how much safer our roads would be if we mandated this in all cars like seat belts, safety glass ect....

I am probably not scoring any cool points here... but I have arrested way too many for DUI the last 7 years.

Again Jeff, I feel so much worse everytime I hear another one of these tragic stories. Sorry.
