Why Drinking and Driving isn't worth it...
http://www.winnipegsun.com/News/Winn...78610-sun.html
I lost a friend today. It doesn't say in there, but an hour ago they pulled her life support, and she passed away.
It also doesn't say she had consumed alcohol (though they are looking into it), but knowing her, and considering what time she was out at (3 am) and how fast she was going to destroy that car, I can honestly say there was alcohol involved.

Sorry to hear about that.
When my entire family was in our car we were hit by a drunk driver.
I think it's just sad that we all have stories involving drunk drivers, it just goes to show how big of a problem it really is.

Damn man im sorry to hear about that...I kno how u feel...one of my best friends senior year got drunk with a buddy at some party, he decided to let his friend drive who was just as drunk, it ended up costing him his life. It's never easy to deal with or accept that it happened.

Really sorry to hear that man! IMO drinking and driving is the dumbest thing you can do in a car...not only do you put yourself in danger, but all the innocent motorists and families on the road.

Damn that sucks. I saw that in the paper the other day and thought the car got ****** up, but it didn't say much of anything just people weren't surprised to see yellow tape outside when they woke up.

I'm sorry to hear that man. And why ohh why was she speeding with a donut on the car. Its bad enough that she was drinking and driving. Plus she was speeding, and doing it with a donut. That sucks man. There is really nothing anyone can say toi make this better for you. When it all boils down, there are no words that can make you feel better. The only thing that can heal this is time.

That sucks man, I Lost a few friends from drunk driving.
Just this past weekend someone I know got drunk and decided to drive. He ended up hitting 3 parked cars and a motorcycle. Good thing noone was around but it happens way to much.
If your going to drink stay there or have someone give you a drive.
