Thoughts and prayers go out to his family. This area seams to be getting worse with these drivers.

Update....the driver of the car that hit the MC officer will be charged with DUI and vehicular homocide. Sounds like a long prison term.

F*#K prison, Run the SOB over, then throw him in prison if he lives.
That's how I feel about all DUI manslaughter cases. Just recently right down the driveway of my work, we lost a respected community man. killed by a drunk as he was outside his own place of business. he wasn't even in his car or in the road.

Drunk drivers need to swallow a bullet. end of rant.

That's horrible! My thoughts and prayers are with his family. So tragic and senseless.

Has anyone else noticed a surprising increase in these wrong-way-driver accidents in recent years? It seems like all of a sudden I hear about these kinds of accidents all the time. Are our highways getting harder to understand, or are we getting dumber as a society (or just drunker)?
