 How come you don't see whenever someone drives drunk, you don't see them suing the automobile manufacturer? Yeah, I say it all the time. Well, there's a real simple answer to why we don't have stronger drunk driving laws, and the answer to that is very simple. Legislators in all 50 states and in Congress are scared to death that one day they'll be caught drunk driving, and if the laws are too tough, they'll be applied to them.
