Sorry you have friends like that. If I were you, I'd find new friends.



You seem to be assuming that my friends were the ones who were doing the drunk driving, not the ones in the other lane of traffic when the drunk driver swerved.

In truth, they were both. I've known people who drove drunk and hurt others and I've known people who drove drunk and have been hurt and I know people who didn't drive drunk and were hurt by a drunk driver.

It's a systemic problem and requires a systemic solution. Personal responsibility is the can we kick when we're unwilling to face the need to change incentives and structures.


Myself and my friends have personal responsibility already :shrug:

If I found out a friend drove drunk, I'd berate the hell out of them and shame them. What a dangerous, selfish thing to do.
