You are guys are pretty harsh we all make stupid mistakes, and its not like he is saying that it is okay to drive drunk, and hell he said pretty much everything that you all have said. No reason for name calling or keep putting him down over and over..

would it change the outcome if he would have? no it would not would, but i dont think slamming a guy over and over when he has already said the same thing is pointless. We are all adults here and should act like it.
Ask me do i think it is right what he did no, does he think it was right no as he stated. i truly believe that he posted it for everyone to say hey dont drink and drive because this is what happend to him.
but bashing someone over and over is pointless. at least he admited making a mistake and then owning up to it so he and others can learn is the right thing to do.
you may not agree Oliver but that is your right, i choose to take a different view of it.

We have our experiences which contribute to our understanding of this situation and our reasoning regarding it.... but thanks for bringing this out to the community and putting yourself on the spot, I hope it can be an example to prevent this from happening with other drivers reading this post... me personally I had to go thru 2 different cars, which were totalled b/c of drunk drivers. I work with DWI community and help them get their licenses back and recover for the mistakes they're made. Recently, in my neighborhood, a 15 yr.old guy driving a CL under influence of drugs and alcohol crashed on a notorious intersection into a car full of people, leaving several dead, and children with no parents to take care of them. He is in jail for vehicular manslaughter. I hope that we can work together to significantly reduce the impact on our lives and safety caused by irresponsible drivers. Good luck, and always look before crossing. My mom saw a woman fly 5 stories in the air after being struck on a side walk in the middle of broad day light on Queens blvd (the boulevard of death they call it) No matter if its a drunk behind the wheel or a looser, a car may be very dangerous killing machine. Watch out for your lives guys.

sounds like we got a bunch of drunk driving *******s on here.
I for one have never driven drunk. If I intend to pilot a 3000+lb piece of steel you better believe im confident that I am not inebriated.

No it just sounds like a bunch of useless internet rants. Yes he did wrong, yes he could've killed someone. Are all the negative useless replies helping change that.. NO.
If you really want to do something about it go break his legs, or become a cop and catch him driving drunk again, or just join Mothers against drunk driving.

Plenty of members on this forum are CHP/& your openly admitted guilt is written waiting for authorities to run your IP address & press full charges, which you indeed deserve!
Driving under influence is just stupid, driving while passing-out/black-out DRUNK then posting about it = GALACTICALLY STUPID. wait for the knock @ your door/office/home they're coming...

I went out saturday night got too drunk, blacked out, hit a curb taking a turn with both front and rear wheels, completely threw off my alignment, now suspension in rear is sagging, my passenger side wheels are both messed up and scratched and bent, and the guy at the alignment says my rear knuckle and bearing are both messed up, im taking it to dealer to get it inspected cause i suspect other things are wrong, i also hear a very loud fan like noise coming from suspension. what else do you guys think might be wrong, also alignment is way off steering wheel all the way to left car pulls to the right!!!!!!DONT DRINK AND DRIVE!!!!!luckily i didnt get a DUI or kill someone or myself!!!

To quote a proverb "Let he that live in a glass house cast the first stone" Okay, enough BS, NO one here is perfect. But what defines us is the capacity to learn.
Carry on
See yeah

If my language offends you, then don't read my posts.
suggesting that I need to act like an adult is laughable given the context of this thread.
let me ask you this;
Have you gotten a DUI/DWI? It certainly sounds that way.

adults act responsibly. Adults do not drive drunk. If my swearing (which gets *'ed out anyway) offends you more than someone driving while BLACKED OUT DRUNK, then I give up on humanity.

Do not be alarmed by Oliver's response. He is absolutely right. He is a positive example to all of us. I absolutely agree.... a responsible driver will not drink and drive. And there is no excuse to do so... it does not matter how much you drank or how well you may control yourself. Some people may drink and drive through the entirety of their lives and never get caught, but the fact is that if we do get arrested for such a charge, it is most likely that we have done it several times before. How often have you been stopped by a cop for no reason? (excluding checkpoints) No matter who you are or how much you have been drinking, once you get pulled over and blow a positive, it doesn't matter how responsible or tolerant to alcohol we are... we all go through the same system....

Think it's funny? Clown admits he was Black-Out Drunk, had an accident etc... Guys have been prosecuted for Speeding/Kill stories trust me this 1's a doozy!
I have a friend that was involved in Street Racing heavily, he got into an accident (no fatalities but injuries were involved in the car he was racing against) somehow info was leaked on his Internet prowess, the DA used his Street Racing Internet posts/threads to fortify case against him. Currently serving 3 yr stretch...Believe it!

I don't know what you intended to "get" out of this post.
Calling $3k worth of suspension damage a nightmare is pretty silly, and if it took this event to give you an epiphany that drunken driving is absolutely moronic, then you shouldn't have even had a license to begin with.
If you wanted help with your suspension issues, you should have stuck to that.
If you wanted to enlighten us about how dangerous drunk driving is, well most people already know that.

Is the story real? The author has 2 post of the 44. Are the replies part of someone's research project? The age group of mbworld has the highest rate of driving fatalities, and most of them had drivers under the influence. Is somebody just looking for reactions from peers?

I did this to my lexus BUT WAS NOT DRUNK and yeah blew out two tires and threw off the alignment, and had that fan like noise from the suspension, still waiting to see what it is.
DONT EVER DRINK AND DRIVE, or be distracted and drive. Just think what wouldve happened if you had killed someone or made them a vegetable for the rest of their life...
