Australia has a very good system, with random checks. It seems not many people drink and drive. I dont drive here in Australia, but when I go home to NY for visits I wonder why they dont have the same system, I think it would really work. The limit should be lowered in the states. .08 is too high. Personally I think even two drinks can affect anyone's ability to drive.

Now we've got drug buses here too.

The stupidest thing is that you don't even lose your license if you're busted on drugs, but you do on alcohol!

I don't smoke weed, can't stand the stuff, but I feel sorry for anyone who's getting busted 3-4 days after their last smoke and copping huge fines.

I remember our drunk driving presentation as a very tame VHS tape with a bunch of numbers and graphs and statistics which caught no ones attention and we were all busy tossing salds in the air or whatever.

if they showed pictures of people's faces ripped off and girlfriend's heads decapitated from driving into a tree, kids would at least notice the video and maybe, just maybe, be scared straight (or scarRed straight, amirite?)



That won't have a big effect. People who drive drunk do it because they think they can manage not to crash. You can show them all the gore you want, they won't believe it'll happen to them. Exposing everyone to images like that might even increase the level of stress in some people and cause more accidents.

Best thing to do is to either prevent those people from getting liscences in the first place, or make sure that once they get caught, they'll never be able to endanger other people again, by locking them up for awhile and removing their driving priviledges for life without possibility of pardon.
