[Story of truly idiotic drunk driving...]

The thing you're missing here is that it's just probability at work. Out
of a couple of hundred drink drivers, one of them is going to cause harm
to someone else. It's a roll of the dice as to who, but the bway I see
it, they're all guilty of reckless endangerment and partially guilty of
manslaughter.

Unfortunately in our society, they're tolerated to much and tyou can
kill someone with a car and get a fine where you'd get life in jail if
you did it with a knife or gun. Personally I hope that changes and
manslaughter with a car gets life, with reckless endangerment getting at
least a year in jail and a lifetime driving ban.

Sorry if it makes me look judgemental from your point of view, but from
where I'm sitting, you're psychologically unfit to pilot any vehicle
more powerful than a tricycle.
