I have a question. What do you think should be the punishment for driving under the influence, and being caught by law enforcement?
The reason I am asking......My cousin got her THIRD DUI this past weekend. When she got her second one, I was told she spent almost two months in prison/jail. Most people learn after the first one, but I am convinced that she isn't learning anything because her parents keep on bailing her out of every situation she ever gets in. Her dad posted her $2,000 bail, and paid around $1,000 in fines. She doesn't have her court date yet, but I am really hoping they send her away for a while. I think her parents are enabling the situtation by continuing to support her financially. She is 28 years old.
I know the punishments are a bit different in each state, but what do you think the punishment should be?
