Drunk driver is the only one at fault here?

[Old Steve]

So the driver:

was drunk
had a previous drunk driving conviction.
was disqualified from driving for seven years.
was driving an unregistered car
was driving an unwarranted car


All the passengers made the decision to accept those conditions, let alone knowing what mechanical condition the car was in, so the driver isn't completely responsible. Good he's off the road for a while and not likely to be around anywhere I ride my bike.

I think this is an example of Darwin's principles of natural selection at work.

your right. If only he'd registered the car this could have been avoided eh

It's sad to see the ongoing lack of common sense.

There may be a lack of common sense but it's not where you think. Blame is a normal part of the grieving process and is to be expected, however irrational it may appear. This can often be seen in interviews with the recently bereaved.

The lack of common sense may more fairly be attributed to the fuckwits posing as journalists who use it to create a non-story, either because they don't know or they don't care.

But will others like them learn the lessons there for the learning? No. Dumb arses.

People dont like taking responsibility for shit. Self criticism bruises their ego, blaming others is easier, and free.

And this from an extra terrestrial x spurt in the field!

The sentence it seems reflects how seriously the guy handing it out takes it.Fucking pathetic.Whilst impossible to stop people driving pissed completely there could at least be an attempt at making people think twice.Coppers that pull people over pissed must shake there heads in disbelief come court day.
