teenagers need to not drink and drive... but adults shouldn't either. People don't seem to realize that what you are doing can not only cause you to kill yourself, but also others that are innocent.

My 21 year old cousin was in a car with a drunk teen driving. At about 2 AM, that teen veered off the road and hit a tree. My cousin was killed on impact, but the driver wasn't. Not only was the teen that crashed charged for vehicular manslaughter, but he has to live with the guilt of killing my cousin and devastating my family. Please ensure these types of things don't happen. If caught in a situation like this, despite the consequences, please intervene.

I think it would be usefull if people started to take away tge license's of anyone who has been caught trying to but alcohol. It would save more lives and I think that is the whole point of this situation is to keep people from drinking and drivng. It is also to keep teenagers from buying alcohol. I also think it would help alot if you took the license's away from people buying minors alcohol.Being a teenager myself, I know teenagers go to adults to buy alcohol.

Get Drunk Teens off the Road
The only thing between the life and death of young teenagers is alcohol and their vehicle; we need to keep intoxicated teens off the road.
Behind every act there is always the influence that provokes the choice even the consequences.
The lives of others are being put at risk due to reckless behaviours of young restless teenagers.
Numerous young peoples’ lives have already be stolen by alcohol, there needs to be something done to keep the youth alive.
In many cases teenagers have been influenced from a very young age, their opinions and choices being manipulated when it comes to consuming alcohol, then later on in life mixing it with a late trip home from a party.
A lot of young people are, in fact, dying before they get old …dying tragic, meaningless deaths.
Most drug related deaths are due to alcohol, we need stricter laws and solid rules to crack down and minimise the death toll of road accidents caused by drunk drivers.
Friend’s don’t let friends drive drunk..

Near to the door
he paused to stand
as he took his class ring
off her hand
all who were watching
did not speak
as a silent tear
ran down his cheek
and through his mind
the memories ran
of the moments they walked
and ran in the sand (hand and hand)
but now her eyes were so terribly cold
for he would never again
have her to hold
they watched in silence
as he bent near
and whispered the words...
"I LOVE YOU" in her ear
he touched her face
and started to cry
as he put on his ring
and wanted to die
and just then
the wind began to blow
as they lowered her casket
into the snow...
this is what happens
to man alive...
when friends let friends...
drink and drive
