Driving Drunk

There are huge penalties for driving drunk
Or under the influence of a drug
Especially if it's your second offense
You have to go to jail for up to six months
Though it could be 55 days
There is the fine of over 1,000 dollars
There is the high risk insurance that could run over 100 bucks a month
You have to have an ignition interlock device installed on your car
You blow into it to start your car
Then you have to blow into it again after five minutes of driving
Then again about 30 minutes later
You lose your driver's license for one to one and a half years
If you kill or maim someone
Then you get more jail time and fines
Wisconsin is the only state that doesn't have criminal penalties for first offense
We also have a huge problem with drunk driving
Texting while driving is growing as a huge problem also

Ironically my nephew is spending his first full day in jail for driving while under the influence. He will get out around May 25. Happy April Fools!

Perhaps the answer is to put interlock technology in ALL cars, and other vehicles, since they are, after all, lethal weapons, when driven at speed.
