drunk driving..?
I believe that people should not drink and drive… jus recently a student from my school died in a drunk driving accident. A few years ago i thought that i couldn’t do anything.. that kids had no control over something like this, an that we could do nuttin to prevent it. However, i decided that enough is enough. We teens can do something about this an i want to. However i can’t seem to find a program about drunk driver for me to join in West Warwick, RI. I am sixteen by the wayy. An i know this may sound crazy but i am DEATHLY afraid of Car Accidents.. The site of a recked up car makes me sick, an i hav nitemares.. but i am willing to deal with those symptoms if i can do anything to help decrease the death rate in drunk driving. So if anybody knows any programs for sixteen year olds in west warwick, RI i would appreciate it.
try S.A.D.D (Students Against Drunk Driving) s.a.d.d.org
if there is not one in your area, this will give you the information you need to help you start one.
I’m proud of you for wanting to make a stand. Don’t live in fear, put your trust in Jesus Christ and Good luck getting this off the ground!
drinking and driving don’t go well together.

see if you can help start a chapter of M.A.D.D. or S.A.D.D. you may need to look them up in the phone book…but they are really great groups and are constantly in the need of volunteers to spread the word against Drunk Driving.
Good for you…that makes me hopeful that the next generation may be headed in the right direction!
I just had a neighbor (17) years old that caused a drunk driving accident and totalled out 2 vehicles. He was the one that was drunk and had a 16 year old drunk friend in the truck with him. He had just bought his truck the previous week.
I was hit by a drunk driver in 1991 and was seriously injured. The guy was driving on a suspended license (for DWI) and did not have any insurance. He did not spend 1 day in jail!
I also think our justice system needs some looking into for these types of offenses…as they should not be able to reduce them to a non-moving violation.
You have hit on a topic that could lead me on for hours and hours…but I will spare you the rest of my soapbox!
Thank you for being scared enough to want to do something about it and I hope that you can attract all of your friends and family to join you in your fight!

Try to find other youths who have had friends or family hurt or killed by drunk drivers. Come together and arrange for your school to let you all testify. Maybe the true accounts of the senseless injuries , disabilities and death might prevent some of your peers from trying alcohol at all. Research the damage it does to the body. The stats on deaths by drunk drivers. And so on. I’m a recovered alcoholic. Sober through God’s grace. I now have a permanent nerve problem due to years of use. I’ve had family injuried, recently an ex-wife who may be crippled for the rest of her life at 46 yrs. old.. Good luck. I’ll pray for God to guide you and open the doors you need
