    The only thing police do is make a given situation worse. The solution to reckless driving is alternative modes of transit, not increased surveillance.

        Having grown up in a rural area, drunk f350 drivers can be reasoned with to get to and from bars safely.

          My uncle got like 5 DUIs in a similar area in a similar car so my experience is different than yours. Most drunk drivers are not easy to reason with

            True, both experiences are valid. The key difference is that the ones who can be easily convinced in my area are under the age of 50 and would probably love the idea of dedicated bar-to-house party busses

          Not 10 miles at 2 am seeing double. And even if they could some wont. Alcohol does this thing where it makes your brain bad at decision making.
