I think it is a good idea. If you fuck up once, but keep your nose perfectly clean after that for five years, you deserve a second chance. It is harder to find a job with a DUI on your record.
If you get two DUIs, tough shit.
My ex husband has had six DUI's. He's a raging out of control alcoholic. Why someone didn't lock him up and throw away the key years ago is something I'll never understand. Of course, they were never his fault. Someone set him up, they changed the speed limit on the road, there was never a stop sign there before...you get the idea. The whole damn world was out to get him when all he's doing is trying to live his life.
PA has a program here where your first DUI is expunged from your record if you take a zillion classes and do all this shit. I firmly believe you should LEARN from your mistakes, not repeat them. One means you fucked up. Two means you're a retard.
Just shut up. Just shut the fuck up right now.
