    Just last evening I cam home from work in a foul mood, polished off the bottle of rum that was lying around, drove to the liquor store and purchased another. About half way through that I got tired of sitting around by myself, so I drove to a friends house where we had a six pack or two each. This made me tired, so I drove home and went to bed.

    If only someone had told me there was an "all you can drink" special on!

    It's not the "all you can drink" specials that are to blame: no one is forcing them to drink and drive – it's all about choice and sheer stupidity. And in this case luck that neither were seriously injured!

    "All you can drink" industry specials are popular with young people who feel they can't afford normal pricing nor the $10 taxi right home, but this will be the result for many.  RCIPS should be aware of these special nights and should be arresting people as they get into the driver's seat in the parking lot, rather than exposing the innocent public to these outcomes.  My best wishes for the family and friends of the sober driver in this entirely avoidable instance.

      "All you can drink" specials should be outlawed for many reasons.

        Stupidity, irresponsibility and complete disregard for human life should be outlawed. Leave "All You Can Drink" out of this!

          I completely agree with you "Jack".  Soon they will want to ban cars because some people drink drive.  smh

          Unfortunately thereality is that there are strong correlations between rampant alcoholism/binge drinking, road deaths, and the thousands of willfully-blind enablers who will one day either crash themselves or have blood on their hands.  I have witnessed the miserable consequences firsthand.  

          All I suggest is that the RCIPS provide more public deterents, ie. have a presence where drunk people are scheduled to finish and get into their cars.  Closing times at the weekly/monthly booze ups are well publicized.  It is frustrating that sober public innocents will pay for RCIPS' lack of dilligence during most of the year when it's not their annual Purple Ribbon initiative.  This is not a seasonal problem, it is every night 6pm-4am.  These are also the hours where nightclub shootings/stabbings are happening and parking lot incidents.  

          Tell me there is no correlation!
