[QUOTE="BP338, post: 290175, member: 415"] Bust away Allen! The subject being discussed is drinking and driving, not stupid and driving. I don't mean to sound condescending. If I do, I apologize. Not my intent. I do feel like stupid drivers should be punished for breaking driving laws because it does cost innocent lives. You have a good point though, because I can't say that I follow all the driving laws like I drink...I don't! I'll speed a little, or run a stop sign every once in a while. I've also driven when I'm really tired too and probably should've pulled over. This puts lives at risk. Maybe not as much as drinking and driving, but still. Distracted driving is a serious issue that is being confronted by the law, just like any other driving law. The only difference is that a lot more people drive distracted than drunk. The real question is, how can distracted driving be curbed? It's a tough subject for sure. Thanks for calling me out. Made me think a little. :;:thumbsup [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] That all being said, I do feel like there's a big difference between a little speeding on the freeway or rolling through a stop sign and drinking and driving. Risks are being taken in both instances, but they seem a lot less with some of the traffic violations versus drinking and driving. [/QUOTE]
