Drunk Driving

I agree with every point you made. What brought this up?

that all makes perfect sense and i agree

unless its a small child or someone else who wouldnt know whats goin on at the time

Well i agree that the driver should be held accountable overall, absolutely....but if the passengers are drunk, then i personally dont think they should be held responsible....drunk passengers in a car with a sober driver, and drunk passengers in a car with a drunk driver....both of them are still just passengers.....i dont think that the passengers should be punished but instead have the driver severly punished with added charges including something like felony endangerment of passengers or something....its not that i dont agree with you, its just that, it should be up to the drunk passengers own discretion to chose whether or not they want to be in a car with a safe sober driver or a dangerous drunk one like you said....and if they make the stupid choice of hopping in with the drunk driver, then so be it....the rest of the world expects that when people have reached the privileged age of 21 that youre responsible enough to buy a drink and do everything else a 21 year old person can do who has from the point on, been given the rites to what that age has shielded, so they should be responsible enough to make their own decision and let their own decision take its own toll on them whether that price that they pay is waking up the next morning with a horrible hangover or not waking up to see the next morning at all.....furthermore, they should put some of the burden on the bar or club or wherever they were administered the beverage, cuz for instance, at my job, walmart....for every accident that my store has, the maximum pay out for our store is $50,000 if that person who was involved in the accident was to get a some type of insurance check or in the event that person was going to try and sue us for money.....so if someone walks into our store and slips on a grape (which is probably one of the most common slip n falls btw) and they get hurt and sue us for a million dollars, our store would have to pay $50,000 of that million from our out of pocket expenses and comes directly out of our bottom line profits....the company itself pays the rest.....they should have something just like that for a bar or something where they pay a heavy fine......
