Another little point of contention. When you see the ads for MADD and their horribly made up stats, just remember. An alcohol related crash not only includes a drunk passenger in either car, but simply having BEER in the trunk can be constituted as an "alcohol related incident.
All that said, I feel bad for anyone who goes suddenly for any reason. If the driver truly was drunk, I hope he gets his in prison. RIP to the deceased.

According to reports, the driver was driving without a license northbound in the southbound lanes while under the influence of an alcoholic beverage. I don't care if he was distracted by a beer sign, I hope he goes to jail for a long time.
