I am so sorry my brother for what you have gone through and what you have to go through I too am a survivor and know too well what pain you go through. I go through pain to this day both physical and emotional. My crash was in 2001. I was given a second chance and use it to perhaps help others. Thank you for sharing. Anthony

Thanks for the sentiment, but I'm not a "brother" I'm a woman lol!

[abcdemilyx3]

thankyou, this helped a lot for my essay

[lindymeehan]

Awesome. What sort of project was it? What grade are you in?

[GuinneaPig3]

DUI shouldn't be premeditated murder...have you ever gotten in a crash? you feel terrible

just imagine how bad they feel after they ruin someone elses life and have to stay in jail for a certain amount of time. imagine having to live your life around the worst mistake you ever made.

also...750 grand? seems a little steep like your exaggerating for a fake sounding effect...

[lindymeehan]

The guy who hit my dad still claims his innocence, and it's good that you are remorseful. You sound genuine. And yes, 750 grand does sound steep but it's true. He's been in and out of hospitals for 11 years.

it takes me at least 3 beers to just get me buzzed, yet I wouldn't trust myself behind the wheel after just one-it's not worth it

i was just in a car with a drunk driver. it is very scary you wont realize that you are drunk until you really think or get pulled over or hit something. luckily my friend stopped him before he did any damage. dont drink and drive you are putting everyone at risk of injury or death

Huh... Small world. Actually had to do a double take when the first thing I saw was the word "Kennewick". (I live in Richland.)

Drunk Driving is stupid! DONT DO IT!!!!!!! I dont give a crap if your friends laugh at you. I dont give a crap if you live two minuets away or you cant afford a taxi. DONT DO IT!!!!!!!! It isn't worth it.

[Zyworski]

I question the glasses ability to accurately simulate intoxicated driving, but as a general rule driving drunk is a bad idea.

I feel for the victim in this case, having your bowels punctured allows infectious contents to spread around the inside of your abdomen, and I bet he had to fight some serious infections as well as the injury.

5 years? That's how long a DUI conviction stays on this drunk driver's licence? Unbelievable. How about upping it to 10 or 11 years, and giving courts in this state the option of requiring convicted impaired drivers to drive as learners, after they've passed another knowledge test? Perhaps the road test should be an extended version, as it is in Britain for many people convicted of a dangerous driving offence.

the legal limit should be 0.0

@lindymeehan im pretty sure the comment was aimed towards the man who was hit by the car.

[funnyanimationguy]

Thank you for putting this on.

i used to drunk drive and I had to learn the Hard way....I hit a parked car going 65 the impact was so hard that my car bounced across 3 lanes onto oncoming traffic somehow I managed to steer the car back n somehow a little fence stopped it from going into a house, I was fine but one of my friends in the car was seriously injured, for 2 weeks I couldnt sleep or eat...the feeling of guilt is there until you see your friend walk out of the hospital...its not worth it at all, so please dont D&D...

remember folks... if you drink, don't drive, and if you drive, don't drink!!

not supporting drunk driving but wairing those goggles and being drunk are not the same thing at all. ive worn them and it shifts everything to the left
