[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 696857, member: 1963"] RN, I'm not trying to be hateful. Substance-impaired driving is a hot-button issue for me. My husband was hit head on by a driver with a needle in his arm,f doing 60mph down an arterial street in Chicago,as husband was on his way home from work. He suffered a couple of broken bones and a severe concussion and facial fractures, but was able to get out of his car and pull the driver out of his van and away from it. Good thing as the van caught fire shortly thereafter. He and I have been hit (while standing still at lights or signs) several times by drunk or high drivers, and once by a driver who fell asleep at the wheel on the expressway and just drifted into us. As a result of that, and having my first accident 3 days after I got my driver's licence when I was rear-ended by the classic housewife wiped out on Valium...well....I just don't believe that addicts should be given cars. I also believe that distracted driving and fatigued driving should be punished. [/QUOTE]
