It is an irresponsible act, no matter what
Apr 23rd, 2008 by Lilian
I normally do not mind lending an ear to anyone who needs it. I used to be part of the bereaved moms support group and I have heard all kind of horror tales. One of the common death factor is drunk driving. It is either the teenager driving under influence or the child hit by a drunk driver.
Therefore, even if I can tolerate a lot of things from people, I will not tolerate their reason for drunk driving. To me, that is the most irresponsible act and I do not care if the person is depressed or had just suffered a big upset in his or her life. There is absolutely no excuse for them to drink, get drunk and drive at high speed. If they did not die, they may cause some other people to get injured or die.
So, when this person whom I had been giving my time to listen to the problems mentioned about the excuse of drunk driving during one of the bad times, it is time to call it quits. I said what I wanted to say and the rest is up to the person. I have seen and heard enough from bereaved moms who lost their child due to DUI. No amount of compensation is ever enough to recover from their losses. You can ask these lawyers at Austin Truck Accident Attorney if you do not believe. The moms from the City of Austin probably have heard of MADD too. Mothers against drunk driving, i.e.
There is absolutely no excuse for a person to drive under influence. If you have a problem, seek help, get a doctor. Don’t blame your depression for your irresponsible act.
