I think driving under the influence is one of the single worst things a person can do. It is so incredibly stupid and can ruin not only your life but the lives of others.
I have been hit by drunk drivers twice in my life and both times it was really traumatic and I was lucky enough not to get seriously hurt either time.
There is something about seeing your mother having to be cut out of a car that really messes with you. Luckily she was not seriously hurt either but even though in a few days it will be ten years since it happened, every time I hear screetching brakes it scares the hell out of me.
So my heart goes out to all of the victims especially the ones who are hurt so badly.
