Our son was killed by a drunk last year, I think the laws for drunk driving should be stronger, and enforced, also that hit and run laws in this state should be more serious. Due to the fact the person who killed our son left the scene before our son was found, means he is NOT being charged with being drunk even though the state has very strong evidence that he was drinking before he killed our son. I think their should be a sobriety checkpoint @ the door law, meaning that any establisment that sells alcohol especially by the glass, should be required by law to have a checkpoint where any customer who has been served alcohol can blow into a machine so as to check their legal status. Further more I personally think the alcohol level that is legal should be lowered to the same standard as what those who drive trucks have, which is .4 instead of .8 If the government is really serious about preventing more deaths then a sobriety check point law would do that better than the seatbelt laws imho, due to the fact that more people who go out for a social drink would be more careful to not over indulge at the bar, if they knew they had to be legal before they left the bar, or show proof that they had a destinated driver who had not been drinking, or had to call a taxi. (imo anyone who can afford to go out and get drunk can also afford a taxi) I know this idea would not catch all drunk drivers but it would catch more of them, and it would go a long way to saving more lives, And is a law that is needed especially since drunks don't care who they kill or what they do, and drunks are not going to stop getting on the roads unless, it really costs them more than they are willing to pay. People don't have to drive drunk, they can get a taxi, a destinated driver, a place that sells could have a sobering up room, drunks should not have the right to go kill people and then only maybe face six months probation if that, which is basically what we have been told the person who killed our son will get. But it is going to jury trial so it will be a long time before he ever goes to jail, I personally think this person needs to go to jail, and needs to loose his liscense, but he is still driving due to the fact every court appearance has been basically a continuance of some kind and the last appearance he stated he wanted a trial by jury, well I want a sobriety checkpoint @ the door law, I think it could of prevented my sons death, and could prevent the deaths of others. My son is currently in the grave due to a drunk driver, who believes he has done nothing wrong (I heard him say that out of his own mouth, which is another reason I think drunks should be made to understand that they are doing something wrong when they drive drunk, whether or not they kill someone, because anyone who drives drunk may kill someone sooner or later. A drunk who drives is just as guilty of premeditated murder as the one who gets up in the morning & decides to use a gun to go kill his or her neighbor, drunks who kill imho should be charged with first degree murder because they chose to drink and drive and their choice led to the death of someone who did not get up that morning with a plan to die.
