WHAT AN IDIOT…WHY DO PEOPLE NOT THINK !!
DEAR IDIOTS…..
DON’T DRINK AND DRIVE YOU MIGHT KILL SOMEONE ELSE, IE SOMEONES SON, DAUGHTER, MUM, DAD. GRANDAD, GRANDMA, GRANDCHILD, BROTHER, SISTER, COUSIN, AUNT, UNCLE, FRIEND……….AND/OR YOURSELF TOO !!!!
HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF YOU GOT A PHONE CALL TO SAY SOME DRINK DRIVER HAD KILLED ONE OF YOURS SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY (driver) COULDN’T BE BOTHERED TO WALK HOME OR GET A LIFT, A TAXI OR A BUS AND CHOSE TO GET BEHIND OF THE WHEEL OF THEIR CAR AND DRIVE THEMSELVES HOME.
I hope the driver/occupants of the other car are ok and suffered no injury and that the drunken driver is banned for life !
Surely the time when the migration plea of “the effect of alcohol (or non prescribed drugs) affected my client’ actions” to explain away any irresponsible act social behaviour, has long passed? We know it affects drivers, there is plenty of evidence it is a contributory factor in many incidents weekend violence, let alone violence at any time.
#correction…I’m sure I typed “mitigation” instead of “migration” apologies.
