Damn Drunk Drivers!

[Lady Cop]

i don't know the stats, i just know it's huge...the number of those killed on the roads by drunks every year. there simply is no stopping it nomatter what actions are taken. is alcoholism to blame? or stupidity and selfishness? it cuts across all demographics, there is no profile.
how the hell do we as citizens stop this bloody vehicular carnage?

here is one from this weekend. bike week in Daytona florida. there are always several deaths. this old bat is from up here on the Cape, but i doubt she'll be coming home.
