    Yea Doug give it a try - I like it much better than with coke-have converted a couple of guys at work to the Sierra Mist with bourbon and rum.... especially Tortuga gold if you like rum.

    Thank you for being responsible enough not to drink and drive. I got hit two years ago while at work. The crash killed him and I was out on IOD for 3 months.

    I agree with you 110% Dep. People have got to learn once and for all NOT to drive after drinking. Too many innocent people are killed or hurt every year by drinking drivers.
    I think 1st time getting caught with a blood alcohol level over the legal limit should result in insurance premium increases which would keep most of these people from driving again.I am talking 3 X's or better insurance increases for say 5 yrs, with a slide back to normal rates in 10 yrs.
    If this was the law, and was well known to all, then maybe more folks would consider the consequences of drinking and driving BEFORE they start to drinkl
    Driving is a previledge not a right. That previledge is given up when acting so irresponsibly IMO.

    I kid about not getting a DUI but its a serious topic for me as well. When I was 16 two of my best friends were killed by a drunk driver. They were riding with another friend of ours who was drunk and pulled in front of a speeding truck. The driver of the truck and the drunk driver(my friend as well) survived. The drunk driver has never been right, he's spent time in mental facilities and is generally miserable. Thats all the deterent I ever needed.

    Lake in the US insurance does at least double when you get a DUI. The issue is that here in Virginia at least you can pay a fine of $500 to drive uninsured. On top of that the majority of repeat DUI offenders are not only driving without insurance but without a license. Mandatory jail time is now in effective in Virginia yet this still doesn't deter many people. Not too long ago a lady in NC killed 4 teenage girls after leaving a bar. She had received I believe 4 DUIs in the past and had been in jail a couple times for DUIs. She had no license and no insurance.

    People who've gotten a DUI should be issued a license plate that advertises that fact. Make them neon yellow or something. It'd instantly give the police and other drivers an important piece of info, and it would add a shame factor to discourage the behavior.

    I think drunk driving laws ought to be a bit more strict, but by that same token I don't think it would matter. As it is, people know drunk driving is illegal and wrong, yet they do it anyway, and other people usually pay the price. I feel strongly about this issue too, as a friend of mine was killed by the drunk operating the vehicle she was in not two years ago, but all the same I just don't know what could be done to make people realize the risk to themselves and to others when they decide to drink and drive. You can take away their license, but then they'll just be unlicensed and uninsured when they kill or maim someone. It is a losing battle unless jail time were the punishment for a first offense, if you take away their license, they can still drive, but they can't do it if they're locked up. I can throw ideas like that out all day long, but at the end of the day, people are going to find a way to do what they are going to do, that seems to be the bottom line here.

    In Virginia now its mandatory 30 days in Jail, first offense. Our DUI rate hasn't dropped since that was implemented.

    Yeah, that's what prompted the line after the one you quoted. Either the system is failing us, or we are failing ourselves...I'm not sure which, but neither one sounds all too good.

    I go back to what I've said many times. Stupid people are procreating faster than the intelligent ones. Put down your cigar and get to the procreation.

    That sounds like what I say...except I don't encourage procreation, with the people I know it would just be more fuel to the fire.
