^ Oo sa mga CVS ng gas stations may ganyan ngang nangyayari. Pero again, nasa tao na lang yan. Kung 2-3 cans of beer lang medyo ok pa ata. Papasa pa sa breath analyzer.

You should see the drivers at the Market Market public transport terminal - inuman hanggang mapuno ang sasakyan, tapos diretso pasada

Yan talaga dapat mapusahan, marami kaya nadadamay kapag public transport and nadidisgrasya!

Exactly - they endanger not just themselves, but all their passengers. Kawawa din talaga yung pasahero, especially if it's late at night and they have no other choice with regards to transportation in order to get home. Tapos malayo pa yung biyahe nung iba sa mga ito - sa Montalban, Fairview, etc - and may tama sila habang nagmamaneho

There are a lot of laws on drunk driving/DUI which have been implemented in other countries... all we need is to pick one that works for us. As for the damages, iba pa yun... There is a penalty for DUI alone and this has to be enforced if caught whether involved in an accident or by suspicion due to erratic driving.

DUI is a driving offense. Penalties come with it including suspension of the driver's license. Deaths, damages, and other results from such an offense have a different price to it.

damages for death caused by crime or quasi-delict to P500,000

counsels, won't the damages already be close to the above figure, DUI or not?

Nice one IMHO.
