Lower the drinking age
Raise the driving age
Improve public transport
I got home from most of my drinking and staggering via taxis, buses and trains...
At least Phelp is giving a message of contrition and trying to speak out against what he did. How many other athletes show such humility when they have done wrong in the "do you know who I am " kind of world that many celebrities live in?
Well said. :groovy: Who needs more "do you know who I am" types? Blech.
But you know, my son just did a research report on the drinking/driving age/licensing issue. It seems that statistics do, in fact, show that when the drinking age was raised from 18 to 21, the "incidents" (or maybe it was crash fatalities) of/from drunk driving declined. Although, for teenagers, it appears that getting rid of passengers and other "distractions" (cell phones, ipods) yields the greatest decrease in "incidents."
Public transportation is good.
