Court systems are nuts. I was in traffic court with my kid a while ago and there was a 45-50ish lady there on her THIRD DUI in 5 years. She had "escaped" from a treatment center, took a cab home, got in her car and went out and got drunk again.
She was a retired teacher and had a niece who said she'd "help take care of her". She got a $500 fine and her license suspended for a year.
HELLO??!! She had a suspended license when she got the third DUI! This woman just plain didn't care. Throw her butt in jail, sell her car and give it to the state to help fund her jail stay.
And here my son is taking all this in - great example to give to a kid.
