ok, here's one for ya... there are people in my neighbourhood whoSTILL drink and drive even though they know the consequences!!! some had already get in accidents MORE THAN TWICE and they still drink and drive!!!!!!!!!!! It doesn't make any sense at all!!!! there are accidents about people , when driving, miss the entire road and drive far onto side walks almost hitting civilians! WHAT'S UP WITH THAT!! ...... sad to say i already lost two relatives to drunken drivers, and with this, i often contemplate the reason for such behavior...

We drink and drive to get back home and most of the time its very simply driven. We have to get back late night, when the roads are empty so i feel its safe enough for us and we try to using driving as a necessity rather than drunken fun. So, it goes fine...

In my opinion, it may "Seem" as if the roads are empty! the driver who took my cousin's life away crushed him with his car and half of his body was gone! still in contact with my cousin's body and the other car he was crushed against, the driver continued driving and did not not respond to my uncle despite him telling the driver - "STOP YOU ARE CRUSHING MY SON!!!!!!!!!!!!!" The driver claims that he did not see anyone!! And how is tht possible??? i'll tell you - DRUNK DRIVING!!!!!!! WHATS THE POINT OF DRIVING WHEN YOU CANT EVEN SEE WHERE YOU ARE GOING?????? IT DEFEATS THE ENITRE PURPOSE!!!!!!!

it is just because when we drink we feel sleepy and want to go home have some food and just go o bed. that's it.

I guess people just won't listen until accidents start to happen.
Sad thing about human behavior is that an experience is needed for a lesson to be embedded into someone's brain. Although there are some who can listen to others and avoid further accidents so that's a good thing.

Those people are irresponsible and even stupid if they drink and drive even after they had accidents,they probably don't understand yet that one day innocent people might die because of them,it's inevitable for tragedies to happen if they don't stop drinking and driving.I'm afraid many of them will open their eyes only when they are in jail,but it will be too late for regrets.

drunk while driving is not helpful to the community because it will provide some violent in the road and can hurt some innocent driver what can i say driving while drunk is not a good idea.

I think that it is hard for people to tell how much they've had to drink a lot of the time, however there are many people who are quite clearly drunk and choose to get behind the wheel; I do not understand that. One of my best friends was killed by a drunk driver and I don't know how the driver can ever live with himself knowing that he has done that to an innocent young man. I don't understand people who take their car on a night out, and then plan to drive home. For me, drinking is nothing something that I need to do in order to have a good time, and I actually think that people who feel as though they do need to have a drink are rather sad and need to take a step back and have a good look at their lives.

It's because not all people are responsible people... we can't force someone to be responsible, responsibility have to come from within themself...

People who drink and drive are stuiped. They go out drinking and they don't think how am I going to get home. So after getting drunk they get in car and try to drive home. Unless they are very lucky that is when accidents happen. When you go out with friends you should always plan a head and someone in your group not drink and be the driver.
