How to punish drunk drivers
by Raghu on Nov 14, 2006 02:40 PM

It is elementary...

First time drunk driving should be punished with suspension of driving licence for, say, a period of 6 months, and should correspondingly increase with successive violations.

Any death caused by drunk driving should invite charges of voluntary manslaughter (since, drinking is a voluntary decision), and the violator should be charged under IPC 402. Nothing less will work effectively in a genetically indisciplined race like ours.
