Why is it people doesn't mind to drive though drunk. I always saw on news those involved in a car accident mostly were drunk, they manage to drive but end up in an accident. People always reminded on not to drive while drunk or even just tipsy, it turned out into accident, I don't know exactly what is the feeling of driving while drunk, if they feel dizzy? crossed-eyed already? I really can't figure out but seeing the people on news it seems to be a mirror to look on to so others may instill in their mind not to drink if you will drive, and if you want to drink ,make sure someone will drive you home so you will always be safe going home. But the most important is to drink moderately as what advertisements always said.

As a drinker myself I can say that drunk person has a tendency to prove that they are not yet drunk that they can still do this and that. Especially if someone tells them they are drunk and they should not drive the more they want to prove the other person is wrong so they insist more.

Of course, you really know yourself if you're already drunk or still can manage to do something, but in the instances of driving while being drunk, we look on it as you are not that capable already of driving, we're afraid you might take a nap while on the way, so it is very risky. do you believe that drunk person is hard to talk with? i mean you find it hard to explain because they don't want to be reprimanded.

it is really a bad habit and it is also forbidden by laws. so for the sake of yourself and your family or other innocent people, just make sure that you never drive while you had a hard drink. or you will lost yourself and make terrible accident.

Yes, it is a bad habit but we cannot make them follow us, if we will tell them to stop drinking or other vices, they will just say "ok" but no intentions to stop, so sad...

Good and disciplined driver should always follow the Rules of the Road which one of these is "Do not drive when you drunk, and do not drink when you drive." If drivers follow this...for sure accident in the road lessen. Good day!

It makes sense to drink and drive. People that drink want to get their cars home. Ok, so people tell other people not to drive while intoxicated, that is fine, but one way to solve this problem is let the drunk person drive their car home so they can walk home later, maybe even have another drink for the road before they leave again. Driving the car home after a person has been drinking is actually helping others because people that drink and drive might not mind giving others a lift if they say they want to go for another drink too. Now if the above paragraph does not make sense to you that is a good thing because that is how a drunk does think when intoxicated. This is why it is good to get an intoxicated person's keys or talk to them about how they are going to get a way home after they have been drinking. don't let your friends drink and drive

I agree to what you've said,for those people who loves to drink,they should stay at home and drink,if they feel bored drinking alone ,they can invite there friends to drink with them and sleep over. they don't even think of other peoples life that will be in danger when they drunk drive.

Drink, get lose the mind so, you have no control for your drive or also for any work and/or behavior performed by you during your drunk. Human people are different from other living things by their minds, when we lose our mind, there are any different at that time. I prefer stopping drink rather than managing it. people should manage a good things in their life, and stop and get away from a bad things. Any body agree with me for that finding.

Yes, drunk driving is really dangerous, for the driver as well as for the people on the roads. One should be aware of the dangers and refrain from drunk driving at all times. Yes, there is news in the newspaper often about accidents due to drunk driving.

One should either be driven home by others or a driver.In case that isn't possible one should take a cab.People's reflexes aren't at their best after a drink hence one ought to resort to being driven home.Drinking in moderation maybe okay but moment one exceeds one's limit then it is best that such a person be escorted home as that is safe for the driver and others on the road.

Yeah, I usually saw many as that thing. Drive but drunk is very dangerous, I think that's gallio. He's not esteem for life, the accident is cost for his conduct.

Those who know if they drink, they will be a drunk driver, are always lacking self-control. They are over-confident in the skills and never predict the bad side although they know the horrible news around. But they refuse to look themselves as the similar one.
