5 DUIs should equal the death penalty. It's only a matter of time before you kill someone else.
DUI license plate
Just because you take away a drunk driver's license, that doesn't stop them from driving...even confiscating their car doesn't stop them...they just buy another one.
Jail/prison is the only way to stop a drunk driver from driving...or death. (and all too often, they kill someone else and the drunk walks away.)
I'm all for much stricter DUI laws in this country.
1st offense...loss of driving privileges for 1 year, and up to 1 year in jail. (sentence based on BAC level)
2nd offense, MANDATORY 1 year in jail, loss of driving privilege for 5 years.
3rd offense MANDATORY 5 years in prison, lifetime loss of driving privilege.
4th offense, life in prison, no parole.
Should ANY of the offenses result in the death of someone other than the DUI driver, MANDATORY life in prison, no parole.
I personally have no problem with the cops parking outside of bars, taverns, cocktail lounges, sports arenas...and pulling over anyone who even MIGHT be intoxicated.
Get the fucking drunks off the road.
the only issue i have with DUI is the one size fits all BAC
there are too many variables like people's size and weight, body fat content and simple genetics that make them more or less tolerant of alcohol.
???
.08 - 1.10 for anyone, but the seasoned drinker, is very intoxicated.
Even the seasoned drinker at .08 has motor dysfunction and judgment problems, they just appear to be "lucid"
The % of alcohol in your bloodstream is mainly dependant on how much displacement your body has...the more you have, the more alcohol it takes to get a higher %.
Guess it's only in my state.
