Drunk driving, it can happen to you. April 12, 2005 it happened to me. I lost my uncle Kevin because one man made the decision to drink and drive. Kevin lost his life and my family lost someone very dear. No one really ever realizes the affect until it happens to you. Some people think it can't possibly happen to them. I'm talking from experience and honestly, I never expected something like that to ever happen. It did happen, it's been three years and there isn't a day where I don't think about it.
The only good thing that came of it was a lesson. I will never drink alcohol and I will never drink and drive. I can not possibly put myself in that kind of situation where I could hurt someone. I wish more people realized how bad it really is. Every fifteen minutes someone dies in a drunk driving accident. That is too many. We have the choice, we can make it better. Think before you act. Don't drink and drive.
