It makes me sick to my stomach that people are still drinking and driving, we need to impose stiffer laws, these people should not be charged with negligence or man slaughter, they need to be charged with murder. Once you drink and get behind the wheel of a vehicle you are committing intent. You know better, so you kill someone with intent, you should be charged with murder. I think they should all impound the car for as long as they have no license, at a monthly fee to them for holding their vehicle impounded. You shoot someone with a gun, they don't give the gun back do they?? Time to save our innocent people from these sick individuals!!!!.
