Drunk Driver Smashes Car: Bumpersticker On Back Reads "I'm A Drunk"
<snip>

Man arrested after accident sends sister to hospital; car's bumper sticker proclaims, 'I'm a drunk'


EUREKA -- A 19-year-old woman was in intensive care Wednesday after she suffered major head injuries in a Tuesday night collision on Harris Street.

Her brother was arrested on suspicion of drunken driving.

Accident victim Jaime Lee was one of four people hospitalized after the crash. She remained in intensive care as of Wednesday evening.

Her brother, Jeremy Daniel Lee, 22, of Eureka, was driving when the car collided with one coming in the opposite direction, Eureka Police Officer Wayne Cox said.

The collision was caused because of “Lee's intoxication,” Cox said Wednesday.

The car Jeremy Lee was driving had a bumper sticker that read: “I'm not an alcoholic, I'm a drunk. Alcoholics go to meetings.”

As far as I'm concerned, even just once getting caught driving drunk should cancel a person's license for at least 10 years.

I've known two people, each killed at different times, by two different drunk drivers. Something more should be done to help stop it.


Edit: Always something else to say on this topic...please don't get me started!
