Anyone who drives drunk is basically saying that anything they hit is not that important and obviously has no respect for property or human life - including their own. I don't think taking a life is any different if it's a bullet, a bomb or a car that is the weapon of choice. Jail is too expensive, bring back the chain gangs and make them work for their keep.

Fortunately for society, I do not believe as Zakimar does. He should be prosecuted for the legitimate offenses that he committed, but I don't see any societal benefit for a life sentence for driving without a license. You better get ready to build alot more prisons because there are far too many drivers out there without licenses. And putting some in prison for life won't stop the problem. I don't have alot of compassion for the drunk drivers, but for a first time offender, even if someone is killed, a life sentence is extreme. This young man made a big mistake and he will pay for it. The family that lost a loved one isn't going to heal faster if the driver is in prison for life.

People driving without a license should get 10 years and drunk driving should get 25. Killing someone while driving w/o a license or drunk should net a life sentence - on a chain gang.
