kids don't take drunk driving seriously enough. i know so many kids at school who do it, and it's such a shame. kids scoff when their schools do something like have a totaled car outside or have a motivational speaker to help teach kids not to do it, but it's so important to not. i'm truly sorry for your loss, RIP.

Warnings on the side of alcohol cans/bottles? same basis as the cancer warnings on cigarettes, only with alcohol.

Sorry for your loss man. Too many people never think about the true consequences of their actions. My good friend and neighbor's family was sued because my friend had a party and these random assholes drunk drove home and got killed. Bullshit. People need to take goddamn responsibility for their own actions.

It's pretty fucked up when under age kids drink and drive. They drive to a party and tell their parents they are going to come home after and when they drink they think they can make it home and are afraid to call their parents to have them drive them home. I know all parents if their child called them and said they were durnk and needed a ride back home would come and pick them up no matter the circumstances

i usually try to get another ride or sleep out if im drinking, but on occasion i will drive but i try to keep a limit to how much i have. and whenever i do drive, its always extra catious and below the speed limit. i dont know what kids are thinking going over 80 mph when there drunk, something bad is bound to happen...

i really think that if there wasnt a drinking age shit like this wouldnt happen, kids wouldnt feel such an urge to get way drunk, and nobody would be scared to ask for a ride home, now that my sister is 21 she started telling my parents ahead of time that she was going to a party and that she might need a ride home after, but before she was 21 she would never say anything to my parents because she didnt want to get in trouble.

I'm really sorry to hear that, I know it must suck, when people do stupid things like that,its so selfish because they dont realize that if anything happens to them, yes they are hurting themselves, but they are hurting everyone else at the same time. my 4 month old baby sister was killed in an accident involving a drunk driver, i was around 7 or 8 at the time, her car seat wasnt completely secured all the way because they werent driving too far and it was late at night. my parents still, to this day, have never forgiven themselves for not securing her car seat.

this is a bit off topic, but suicide is also one of the most selfish things you can do. it's like saying I hate my life so much, and I can't take it anymore, so i'm going to make it a living hell for everything that has to live without me everyday.

but from the suicidal persons perspective...they dont really care about the after effect of their death. they just want to get out of their miserable depressing life

yes, which is why it's selfish, because they dont think about how their choice is going to affect the people that love them, they don't care, they just dont want to live anymore, its the most selfish thing you can do

MADD Canada came to our school last year and put on one of the most horrific and graphic drunk driving presentations i have ever seen. I will never drink and drive after watching that, just incredible.


RIP man
