I don't think anyone should drink or do drugs and drive (I don't drink or do drugs at all, but I don't care how others "recreate"). That being said, I've seen people fairly over the limit drive better than most of the brain dead public on the road today. If you drive poorly, cause an accident, and kill someone, the penalty should be the same whether you were drunk or simply forgot that you are piloting 2 tons of metal at highway speed. The end result for the families of the deceased is the same, whether it's caused by alcohol or the fact that you were using a cell phone, eating, putting on your makeup, or reading something while you are going down the road, or simply thought that actually learning to drive a vehicle wasn't worth your time. Just my 2 cents. "Rant off".
