[nagdu] car accident

[Linda Gwizdak]

Hi Mardi, and Bunny,
Unfortunately, the drunk driver who kills someone gets Manslaughter because 
it isn't considered Murder in the sense of getting a gun, going to the 
person to be shot, and actually shooting them.

I agree with you that this should be changed.  A person CHOOSES to drink 
alcohol.  they CHOOSE to get behind the wheel and drive a motor vehicle 
while drunk.  So they should pay for the damage done - lives lost, people 
injured, and property damage.

Bunny, I wondered what happened to you.  That really sucks about your 
injuries and hope you are able to heal from this.  The idiot who hit you 
should pay for your transportation to and from and for your treatments due 
to the injuries he has caused you.

My Mom found an article in The San Diego Union-Tribune about a 
computer-controlled car developed by Virginia Tech engineering students and 
ridden in by students participating in the Youth Slam sponsored by the NFB. 
Yeah, maybe they better get going on developing these cars for EVERYONE to 
drive since people can't seem to drive responsibly and innocent people pay 
the price for human stupidity!

Linda and Landon
