I don't know about the rest of the states or even what other countries do, but in Utah that’s a video you are required to watch as part of the DUI course that every drunk driver is given.

You are also required to go to a class called MADD (Mothers against drunk driving) you sit and listen to people who talk about having lost loved ones due to drunk driving.

As somebody with a DUI, I can say it hits home every time to see that video. I got lucky and was ticketed because I was asleep in my car when I got mine, but I'd driven drunk a thousand times and never thought anything of it.

It’s my personal opinion that suspending someone’s license does absolutely nothing but inconvenience them when they get a DUI. I'm only 20 and I won’t have my license for 4 more months (Lost it last October). People who get DUI's should have to spend more time working and talking with these people that have lost loved ones.

Losing my license has been frustrating at best, but having to take those classes was the absolute worst. (And that includes the 3000 dollar fine). It was months before I felt like a decent person again and for me that feeling is enough to quit drinking for ever.

IDK how many people have DUI's on this forum but I applaud JLC and the OP for both posting it and allowing it to stay up.
