It’s pretty bizarre. When you place a person in prison for 1yr and then take the license for up to 3yrs, and give them fines out the ass and no way to drive to work to pay them. Why would you take a person from their job and place them in prison and make them lose their homes, family and income and then give them all these fines to pay, how in the hell do you expect this person to live? You don’t and let me tell you that my sister had a baby killed by a drunk driver at the age of 3yrs back in 1983. That girl doesn’t receive anything from Madd and to this day she has health problems, no one pays her bills or gives her help. So don’t tell me that all this money saves lifes, all it is doing is making others rich off of DUI’s. The law needs to be changed and it needs to be consisted in every county and state, not according to the judge, it needs to be fair. We have all these ads for alcohol but yet you can’t smoke. MADD and the Judges and prisons are making a lot of money. The whole thing is a money making business and thats why they still sale it, now even in supermarkets. As long as you have alcohol you will always have drunk drivers on the road. If you wanted to eliminate it you need stop giving license to the Bars. I live in a area where there are 10 Bars, not counting Clubs all on top of each other, plus you have your restaurants selling it. Bottom line is all you really want is the money so why place people in prisons and make the tax payer pay for them to live, let them work, stop trying to get even with everybody its not going bring back our love ones. God took them home it was his will. comment by M. Santel – March 3rd, 2009

The statistics have remained unchanged for 13 years because if they changed mad would cease to receive the type of funding and notoriety they enjoy. Also MADD and it’s pet troopers / police officers have received their fair share of DUI’s. The simple fact is alcohol impairs judgement. As long as you have alcohol you will have drunk drivers. Their is no way to eliminate it.

It’s pretty bizarre. I wasnt sure what was going on when they arrested me while I was sober. I didnt realize they were going to charge me with DWI because I hadnt had much to drink. But they went through with it and it’s expensive. I think either they made a big mistake or they are purposely doing to me for ..is there a reason? I dont know why yet… It’s insane tho especially because I was actually going to work. I cant work if I cant drive..the whole situation turned out spooky.
