I don't know if this story is true or not, but figured it would be of interest to everyone here.

Three years ago when I was coming home from school after open house a drunk driver came at me and hit me. I was very fortunate that one, I was wearing my seat belt. If I hadn't I would of probally been worse off. I felt my van go out of control and it almost felt like it was going to roll over. I was also lucky that no one was driving behind the drunk driver because I ended up on the other side of the road. I was able to gain control of my van and pull over. The drunk driver did not stop until she was a good quarter of a mile up the road. When she was arressted she didn't even realize that she hit anyone. I some how came out of the accident with only a minor injury. How I don't know because if you had seen my van it was a different story.
If you think that someone drinking and driving is not my business, it is. To this day I still get scared when I see head lights coming at me. I wonder are they going to stay on their side or are they going to keep coming at me. I consider myself very lucky I wasn't hurt or even killed. Are you going to tell those who have lost family members to drunk drivers that it is not there business?
