DON'T LET DRUNKEN DRIVERS ON ROAD AGAIN

I JUST LOST my sister and best friend in a car accident. I think about how she felt about drinking. She never touched it and did not associate with people who did. She enjoyed life so much, and I'm angry that nothing is being done to protect innocent victims like her.

The laws need to be changed. Don't pat drunken drivers on the arm and send them back out in a car. Take their permit, take their car, let them walk.

For those who drink and drive, your punishment should be forever. ANNE THOMAS MONTVALE
