Nobody takes drink driving more serious than me, but this is just dumb :nuts:

Tell that to the person he could of caused an accident to. Never underestimate the seriousness of drink driving, be that in a 14 wheeler truck or on an electric barbie car. Too many lives a lost to this kind of stupidity.

:twisted: My nan was killed by a hit and run driver before I was born.
He was never caught.
Every year my dad goes quiet around the anniversary of her death.
He still gets upset even over 33 years after it happened.
If I could find the b@$tard who run over her i'd swing for him.
Not just for my nan (who I never knew) but for my dad.

Believe me, drink driving is something I take VERY seriously.

I know this man had a previous drink driving conviction within the last 10 years, and he deserved to be (and was) punished for that, but this is just plain silly.

If my nan had been hit by a Barbie car it might have bumped her shin.
That would have been much more preferable.
