There is NO excuse for that -- one time and you're out should be the rule! My cousin was killed by a drunk driver (a woman at that - so people don't be so foolish to think that men are the only guilty ones) -- my cousin was 2 and she was decapitated because the car that hit her was going so fast. This was in 1978 and the "punishment" then was that the woman had to do 50 hours of community service. That was all -- no jail time, no restitution (not that she could restore life but still...) -- my heart is still broken for her and my family over it.
This is why I tell my chapter members that they can call me - anytime - night or day and I will not lecture, fuss, or complain -- I will pick them up and take them home safely because being called up in the middle of the night is MUCH better than the alternative!
