Cat,
I've always believed that drunks pay taxes too, and should have their own highway system built. But, on the other hand, I've lost several friends, including my high school sweetheart to accidents caused by drunk drivers. Drunk ran a redlight and broadsided her on the driver's side at 80mph. I remember the sunshine at her funeral, and the sudden downpour as we were leaving the gravesite. She had been on her way to UAB hospital to visit her best friend, who was hopitalized in ICU by a drunk driver.
So, besides the emotional torment, I have mixed feelings.
I am so afraid that someday, I'll see the face of someone I'm about to collide with, while a cell phone is glued to their head, and the last thought I will think is, "Is that conversation worth you killing me?". I guess distraction and impairment are one in the same.
