We share that issue. I've seen so many high school kids in accidents with alcohol- and we've had some fatalities. And don't get me started on supposed adults who get behind the wheel when intoxicated. Quite frankly I'd rather just hand them a gun and have them kill themselves, then take the chance of them taking a carload of innocent people with them. What to do? Checkpoints are an excellent idea, imo, in areas where people are likely to be intoxicated- like winery roads, and on nights when people party to excess. I'm for sobriety checkpoints, and I hope the police look carefully for drunks. There are a lot of people getting DUI's- so I think the police are stepping up on this one. I don't care if folks get smashed at home, but they have no right to get behind the wheel.
