Drunk Driver kills Motorcyclist
I hope this link works.
This is why I hate drunk drivers, plus the fact that my Brother-in-law was killed by a drunk driver while riding his bike.
My deepest sympathy to the Family of the motorcyclist.

Not much scarier than a cager about to turn left in front of you on a Friday or Saturday night. That's the highest level of alert for me when riding at night on the weekend.
Too bad for everyone involved.

I had a DUI cager hit me head on at 1pm in the afternoon a residential side street 30 years ago. Lucky for me I was dressed right and had my helmet on. The guy was stupid drunk with his wife & kids in the car. 
All he got was a traffic ticket because things were very different then. This girl is 19 years old and her life is now screwed. The victims family now has a nightmare to live with forever. WTF? What a waste.

Unfortunately this happens way to often. Something like this scares the cr@p out of me.
Minding your own buisness riding a two lane road when something like this happens.

Look at that sad look on her face, it makes me sick. I hope they put her under the jail. I do think twice about riding on Friday and Saturdays nights myself. I wonder if the biker ever took the MSF class. I guess sometimes things happen so fast you don't have time to avoid the crash, I hope I never have to find out myself.

The minimum charge in these cases should be felony manslaughter, if not 2nd degree murder. Mandatory jail time, no excuses, period.
And while we're at it, let's make injuring or killing someone while yacking on a damn cell phone a felony as well, with mandatory jail time.
I hate government nosing into my life as much as the next guy, but it's time for some action to curtail this lack of personal responsibility.

Sorry to hear about your brother-in-law and about this poor 21 year old kid that lost their lives. I have two boys 18 and 20 and if there is one lesson that they never stop hearing, it is NEVER, EVER get behind the wheel if you have had any alcohol.
Lives are lost, and lives are ruined. If this girl's parents are around, I feel bad for them too.

Looks more like a hang-over than a sad look. They need to take th b**** out back and shoot her like a rabid dog.
