Please don't drink and drive!

A good friend of mine was killed last night by a drunk driver. Please, for everyones sake DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE. I cannot stress this enough. Hopefully it doesn't take another tragedy like this to make you realize.

Ten bucks says the driver lived.

Alright...I don't care how much you drink. I don't give a shit how many drugs you take. But the second you start putting someone else's life in danger through your intoxicated actions, that's just fucking unacceptable.

I'm so sorry for your loss.

I'm really sorry to hear that. I hate people who are that irresponsible.

i'm sorry too, i hope it the sadness moves swift...

.... i dont even think about holding car keys if i'm drunk. its waaaaay irresponsible.

seems like the drunk fucker always does

Thanks for the kind words. It's a sad day.

dude, i'm so sorry.
drunk drivers scare the living hell out of me. especially when i get in a car with one, and halfway through the journey they decide to tell me they've been drinking.

I used to drive drunk all the time, not like I would drive to a bar, get drunk, then drive home, I get drunk at home, then take a drive.

Thank god I don't drink anymore, haven't in 5 years

Sorry bout your loss Panzer

condolences and empathy... that's really terrible. people are idiots.

I wish your heart comfort, I'm so sorry.

People who drive drunk should definately go to hell.

Jesus, man, I'm sorry to hear about your loss. Try to remember the good times you had, and not the horrible way your friend left this life.

Sorry to hear it, Panzer. That really sucks. I hope the bastard who did it gets what he deserves.

didnt winnona rider get pulled over for DWI like a few weeks ago?
and isnt her mom like part of MADD?

yay for irony

Yeah, yay.

People look at me funny when I go off on rants about the evils of driving drunk. I don't understand why they think it's ok. One time, when I had my voice raised a little too high, this stupid git looked up at me disbelievingly and said, "Yeah, like you've never driven drunk." I looked at him and almost punched him, but I restrained myself and said, "No, I haven't." The thought that anyone thinks this is ok, especially in this day and age with, what, seventy per cent of the country's eligible population out there driving, completely baffles me. Drunk drivers are the most irresponsible, idiotic, low-down sort of creep out there, and I wish it was legal, no, required to euthanise them when they get caught, especially this way. Maybe you screwed up by drinking and getting in the car; that doesn't mean someone else has to pay the penalty.

I'm sorry about your loss, man. That may seem empty coming across so many wires and miles, but I am.

Sorry to hear about your friend.
It really upsets me that people still drink and drive...

sorry to hear this... i know i'm guilty of driving while not %100.

And please watch the speed limits. More people die each year in accidents that involve driving at speeds above the posted limits than are killed by drunks, falling asleep at the wheel, drugs... combined.

trilo

Yeah it's pretty sad and crazy how rampant drunk driving is. I quit going to parties just because every fucking one I went to ended with like 25 drunk kids and 2 or 3 sober drivers and a bunch of stupid excuses.

No it's not ok if you only live a mile away. No it's not ok if you "think" you're fine. No it's not ok if your friend was supposed to drive but ended up drinking and you're better off than they would be, yet not quite sober yourself. No it's not ok... EVER.

Another reason I have no faith in humanity.

Sorry for your loss...i just don't get the attitude of "i don't care" that some people have about drinking and driving. I've never personally lost any friends that way, but too many of my friends have. One acquaintance of mine said the other day that he drinks and drives and i just wanted to slug him...but i kept my mouth shut and now i regret that.

I'll admit to having a few beers and driving but i'm a big guy and i can drink a few and be allright. I'm never intoxicated--grossly or otherwise--but this makes me think that maybe i shouldn't even have those. Well one or two won't hurt.

Still...why can't people fucking learn that number one on a top five list of bad things to do on a night is to get hammered and then go joy riding? It's the vehicular equivalent of Russian Roulette but with greater casualty potential.

Maybe there shouldn't be any words for this. Your friend died, and we're sorry.
