Ironically, the driver was fine and still has a licence! I swore after that I wouldn't drink and drive, though I did it once - when my designated driver got even drunker than me and I was stranded without a ride. I was terrified and drove at below 40. The sad thing is that it's only when this happens to someone close to you that you realise how dangerous it is. There is no cultural stigma against drinking and driving in India. The police being stricter about it does help though - I know a lot of people who are careful now just because they don't want the hassle with the cops.The Bridehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10402100518464137956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6213164739660434954.post-89323876616532764132010-02-03T04:04:42.143+05:302010-02-03T04:04:42.143+05:30Can't disagree with a word you've written,...Can't disagree with a word you've written, S, but...<br /><br />"My Facebook status sayign I boycott drunk driving and drunk drivers created an uproar of sorts - some friends claiming they've gone 13 years drinking and driving and never having an accident"<br /><br />Wait, seriously?<br /><br />There are people out there who will ADMIT that they have driven under the influence of alcohol? <br /><br />I hope you gave them a piece of your mind.
