Later this week a lovely woman aged 19, will come to my house, as I have offered to help her organise her, for her first term at university, go through her lists, and order bits and pieces,
I know her parents would love to be doing this with her, they also missed doing this with her brother, they have missed everything in the last 16 years,
about sixteen years ago five of my friends were travelling to a wedding of another friend of ours, when on the motorway just before Birmingham a selfish bastard, drunk slammed into their car spinning it into a lorry,
all five died from their injuries,some immediately,some took a while,so smashed up their parents couldn't recognise them,none woke up ,other cars were involved, many of the occupants suffered life changing damage, the lorry driver never drove again,many families were permanently effected,
of my five friends , two were a couple also newly married, but with small two children,who had been left with their grandparents for the day, one of the other lads had only the day before learnt he too was to become a father, totally delighted, he was just about to start his PHD, his sister who was sat next to him 22 weeks pregnant, died the day after the crash, the other woman a very dear friend of mine, the only child of a lovely couple took a week to die, she was due to start at uni, she was god mum to the girl who is coming to mine,
anyone suggesting giving the subject of this thread any help in avoiding very basic consequences of his actions, is also responsible for future outcomes of his drink driving,
This vile selfish pathetic excuse of a human should man up, take his ban on the chin and thank every star in the sky he didn't have to face something much worse,
How grim that he made a choice to drink and drive, but to then try to get out of what is really a very minor punishment, well that is so shameful I'm surprised anyone wants anything to do with him ever again.
Paying money to get out of a drink driving charge is so disgusting,asking other to contribute is shocking, even considering doing so vile.
I hope that those who consider this a good idea never get to understand what the consequences are.
OP, your brother in law should quit driving for life, he doesn't have the capability to understand the responsibility, I pity you being related to such morons,
you mention that some of you have children, what kind of example are you all setting to them? do something despicable and pay your way out, great life lesson for them.
the man that killed my friends still lives his life, shame he ruined so many other lives.
I will show my friend's daughter this thread, she takes an active interest in drink drivers, and public attitudes.
I have in my car a photo attached to the sun visor, it shows the group of us happy and care free,taken a couple of weeks before most of the people in the photo were killed, every time I get in my car I look at that photo, if for any reason I think my driving won't be perfect that day, I get out the car, it's not worth risking anyone lives, just because I want to go somewhere.
OP tell your brother in law to act like a decent human, and hold his hands up and take what he deserves.
