So sad and avoidable, fuck drunk drivers. There's a ghost bike just down the street from me because of a similar incident
I agree but also think we should punish bars too... Bar with 4 staff and 30 parking spaces and no feasible way to walk there? How are they not encouraging drunk driving? They know people drive drunk afterwards but deny and ignore it.
If you don't drive to bar, you can't drive drunk home. Uber, bus, train, delivery etc. If you want to drink there are many options which don't involve driving drunk.
You know what's really fucked up? The zoning code (at least in my area) mandates minimum parking requirements for bars. The law expects people to drive to them and enforces that behavior to be accommodated!
But will also destroy your life for partaking...
