Funny how when you KNOW you WILL spend time in jail for offending it actually has a deterring effect, isn't it?

Yep, just like the propaganda tries to claim the 0.08 change led to decreased fatalities, when one of the other factors is laws mandating license suspensions.

When you know you will lose your license, this has a change in the mindset.

I agree that made an impact. I am all for more of that.
Raising the fines isn't the right way to go IMHO. Raising the time you spend in jail and the time you spend without your license is a better way to go.....but understand jail costs moeny too....and who should have to pay for that?

Drivers that drink pay them dollars.

Easy way out here...if you had more than a drink or two with dinner, don't drive.
