Drunk Driver's

This morning most Seniors had to wake up extremely early to watch a drunk driving incident that took place right outside of our school. The incident was very graphic and highly descriptive. There was a car with approx. 4-5 teenagers. 2-3 in the back and 2 in the front. 1 student was pronounced dead right at then scene of the crime. The others were in critical condition, and taken off to the hospital. The driver was charged with aggravated homicide and sentenced to prison. Years I don't know but i'm sure it's probably 25 years max. The car was dismantled right at the scene of the crime. The girl found dead was taken to the medical examiners office to have an autospy performed, after the examiner called the girls parents to come and identify the girl. I seen the accident last year and it was a really shocking experience. It scares me to know that I can be driving one night, and be in the wrong place at the wrong time and get struck by a young drunk driver. It makes me not want to drive at all, just the thought of, "that could be me, dead!" "/ I think that most of my peers should take that seriously and perform safe driving. Also I hope that they stay away from the wheel if they're intoxicated. Them not getting behind the wheel after they had a couple of drinks would save lives. As for Memorial Day Weekend is approaching where people, teens and adults get extremely ridiculous, drinking and driving thinking they're okay when they're not.
