An excellent approach and one that works probably 98% of the time. The other 2% is where one of the less intelligent find you while you're on the road at the same time as they are.
Sad for his family.

Drinking and driving is preached everyday. I know that most people have done it, and things worked out. However, when it don't its usuallly a hard lesson that doesn't allow the driver to learn, since they rarely live.
On the other hand, seems like when a drunk driver hits an innocent person, the drunk survives, and the bystander is killed
its always a sad situation, no matter what --- unfortunately this won't be the last person to drink and drive, then wreck and die.

GT rates up in Mexico? I've been to many places in Mexico and I, as an American, would in no way on this planet drive my car there. It would be in a Federallys garage in no time.

Drunks usually escape major injury in a car accident because their body is relaxed when they go through the accdient. Keeping your body completely relaxed when trauma is happening to your body makes you less prone to bone breakage and inury. A good example of this is dropping your hand on a table when your hand is relaxed, then tensed. You'll feel the difference. Obviously, this wasn't enough to save this guy.
At least this guy just took himself out and didn't shove a family in a mini-van over the edge with him. I have no sympathy for a drunk driver.

Good judgement comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgement. Unfortunately, this fella didn't live to learn from his mistake. My thoughts go out to those who survive him. :mellow:

being a victim of a drunk driver - I have no sympathy for him - I do however have sympathy for his family who have to live with his foolish decision. Its just Too bad, alot of people just dont get it and no matter what - the lesson will get repeated and quite a few still wont get it, Booze and cars dont mix.

It stinks that the driver died, but the good thing is that somebody has a stylish house now

20 years old, which probably means he couldn't afford the car. I assume the GT was given to him by someone close, probably the father, who wanted to make him happy. Whoever it was be he must feel like crap now.
I read about teenagers and young men being handed performance cars and I wonder what the parents are thinking about.

Drunk driving... what a waste of life. At least he didn't hurt anyone else
