    Around 7am this morning, one decided he wanted to see how many times he could flip his car and then land on my grandfathers truck.

    Scenes from my grandparents front yard this morning.... You're truck isn't safe in your own driveway anymore.

    Yeah...It's easy to be relaxed when you don't know what it going on...Too bad it's easy to kill people too.

    Looks like a new truck is in order on the other guys bill either way...

    That's unfortunately the norm... some so violent I've seen with the engine on the highway... minus the tranny that's still inside the frame rails. Drunk drivers kill... programs exist to educate, but yet they continue... no easy fix for foopid stuckers.

    Try explaining to a hysterical mother that runs down the middle of the highway at 0-dark thirty, wandering in and out of emergency vehicles and make shift air ambulance landings zone that her 16 year old daughter was a passenger she'll never get ot speak with again.

    Do this all the while the media runs up and down the guardrails trying to film the event... add in a drunk who's uninjured and uncooperative. Try that and tell me what you think about drunk drivers.

    Do a good job, don't violate a physically offensive motorvehicle homicides suspects rights and most importantly, don't let the grieving family down...

    Now ask me what I think should happen to drunk drivers... ah, best we don't visit that address.
