What exactly are you trying to imply? I was already smart eough to not drink and drive. And for those of you think i'm not giving kids enough credit...think about it. There are alot of kids out there, who are smart enough, ALREADY to not drink and drive. They don't need some dumb school assembly to tell them not to do so. THAT is what I was getting at. It didnt apply to me because I didnt drink, and honestly, at that point in my life, I didnt associate with kids who did. I knew it was illegal because I was underage and didnt associate myself with kids who thought it was cool. I didnt feel the need to be empathetic to kids who were stupid enough to tip back the bottle because they thought it made them look cool, and especially for those, who decided to get behind the wheel after having done so.

I think those 20% that was mentioned is already smart enough to not be stupid...so again, as I said...pictures, and videos, and testimony, aren't going to do jack squat for them. It's the other 80% you need to worry about. And if they "suffer a little emotional distress" because of it, then good. They probably need it.
