I’ve NEVER been hit or injured by a drunk driver.
I HAVE been hit by a woman who was in a hurry to turn, and by a college girl running a red light (in a hurry to get somewhere.)
The latter involved 4 cars and damn well killed an innocent bystander.
These two and the drunk driver were serial bad-drivers. Made several incremental poor decisions, and were each a problem and danger to others.
The drunk driver, the careless woman, and the stupid girl are all impaired and dangerous....girl more so as she was speeding intentionally.
Some bad sober drivers will NEVER be as safe as most people at 0.12. WHAT ABOUT THEM?
MADD just uses alcohol as a demonization tool, since they could get no marketing traction for a consistent campaign against ALL dangerous drivers.
Cellphone drivers are equally impaired behind the wheel (distracted, disoriented, and handicapped by choice). And people use their cellphones 24-7-365. Drunk drivers tend to be out in higher percentages in the nighttime hours and especially during holidays and other “event” days (Superbowl, etc.).
Yet talk of prohibiting cellphone use while driving and some of those who support MADD suddenly get defensive.
