Admin’s Note

The recent hit-and-run incident involving drunk driving has made us reconsider the risks associated with drinking and driving. In particular, the fact that the defendant’s actions were deemed intentional is extremely serious. Each of us needs to not only avoid driving after drinking, but also encourage those around us to do the same. In the future, efforts to eliminate drunk driving will be crucial in our society.
