How to avoid a DUI Arrest, and make the streets safer?

Here is how one Mom makes the streets safer for cyclist and avoids a DUI arrest?

Hope she did not make bail too soon. She needs some time in jail for stupidity.

There was one in Indiana that had her FIVE YEAR OLD doing the driving! Some people have no clue...

Well they would have had the 10 year old drive but he couldn't work a stick.

All that to get a 2 mile ride... pathetically stupid and lazy. Sadly, stories like this are so commonplace and no longer surprise me.

It really make one wonder about some people. I try not to judge anyone, but this story leaves me wondering what sort of desperation would cause a mother to exercise such all around poor judgment. If getting to the bar was this important to her, then, obviously, she was visiting for reasons more complicated than just her desire to drink. You'd think that whoever it was she was going to join at the bar might have been able to give her a two mile lift.

This is a really sad story.

Given the choice, I would prefer a sober 12 year old driving rather than a drunk 35 year old.

I wonder if this woman had her 12 year old post bond for her to get out of jail.

The is a pic of Jennifer Rosenberg who was arrested for having her 12 year old daughter taxi her around for her birthday drinking bash.

I dunno, maybe it's me, but why do I get the feeling you would itch all over after spending time with this woman? Fellows, keep you eye open for this one when you here the bartender shout "last call for alchohol"... (best pick-up line = "your trailer or mine?") offer her some smokes and a six pack of Old Milwaukee to cinch the deal.

This is just another another marginally relevant and totally boring demonstration of Schadenfreude.

Seems more relevant to cyclist safety than reposting a fake picture.

Irresponsible motoring is by far the greatest single threat to my safety, happiness, well-being, and survival. I hardly consider that marginally relevant.
