I am sitting here listening to tonights news. In the period of 2 minutes, I hear 3 different reports of 5 people, including a police officer, who were killed by suspected drunk drivers. The police officer was hit by a 19 year-old 'suspected' drunk driver.
Every 15 minutes, in the United States someone is seriously injured or killed by drivers under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Often, far too often, its innocent people at the wrong place at the wrong time.
There is enormous energy around all kinds of 'world events' right now and each of those 'issues' have merits of their own. Heck here on SB, there is tons of energy directed towards the state of training within our sport. When looked at worldwide, more people die from DUI related accidents in a weekend, then an entire year of diving.
SO I ASK YOU.....WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE in the 'almost' socially acceptable practice of drinking and driving?
