Don't drink and drive...
I know it's probably an annoying mantra to most people. But how hard is it for one person to be a designated driver? Or shell out a few bucks for a taxi.
I had always counted myself among the blessed to never have lost someone to drunk driving, until this summer, when my uncle was basically run over by a truck (drunk driver, who incidentally was an illegal immigrant and fled the country- drama extraordinaire- the family is going after the truck owner's insurance company -driver didn't own the truck, was his brother's) while riding his motorcycle.
I know this isn't what you were looking for... but you know that no one's going to support you here.
And just if you really are serious about law school, you'd best avoid situations such as this. The bar doesn't take too kindly to these sort of things when you're trying to get admitted.
Drunk drivers should get every penalty that can be bestowed upon them. You can't argue that your night of drinking and partying justifies the risk you are assuming when you get behind that wheel of killing someone.
C'mon, you're a smart guy. Think about it.
