70. the drunks are usually the survivors in crashes
The ones who DIE are the poor sod's that got plowed in to. Even WITH seat belts. I would rather NOT lower the drinking age with the problems of cell phones AND stupid teenagers driving dangerously when drunk. Some dumbasses will try to act like they're invulnerable when driving drunk, and kill someone else doing it.

Georgia has a graduated license program which I thank the gods for every day. But we still see floral monuments on the sides of the highway, put up by parents who have lost kids due to drunk driving. Less teenage drinking means less DEATH on the highways.

I have no problem with raising the draft age to make it *fair* all around.
