Russ, To me, there is a huge difference between the guys killing themselves with beer, burgers, and a couch potato lifestyle, and the guy who makes stupid decisions while driving a car. The first scenario hurts one guy, and perhaps family and friends, and all of our insurance rates, but he doesn't kill or maim anyone else.
The second guy has the high potential to kill or seriously injure other innocent folks, and often does, as in this instance, his own passenger. Lucky someone wasn't standing on the sidewalk!
The recent Cobra double fatality here in Greensboro seriously injured several innocent teenagers who were hit head-on by a speeding Cobra. They didn't get a choice or a chance.
I hope I never have the unfortunate bad luck to have my stupid mistakes, of which there have been many, cost anyone else so dearly.
