I always think of shit like this when something pissing me off...one bad accident can have wishing you could go back to worrying about the things that was pissing you off a few minutes earlier
I've never seen a DUI/fatal crash, where the driver didnt have to do some significant time.
RIP to the individual who lost their life.
Never and I mean never understood why niggas will drive drunk or intoxicated. If you know you will be drinking (extensively) at any establishment, make arrangements before hand so you don't have to drive home. A fucking shame that someone had to lose their life over this bullshit.
He needs to find out who Leonard Littles lawyer was. Leonard little killed somebody drive in and got off

Uber's ride-sharing app.Uber
The NFL Players Association has contracted with Uber to provide on-demand car service for football players to make sure the pros don't drive under the influence, the sports union announced Wednesday.
The service allows users to order a private vehicle, taxi, or peer-to-peer car service through a mobile app.
"The NFLPA is committed to serving our membership both on and off the field," NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith said in a press release. "We view the partnership with Uber as an innovative way for players to have access to professional transportation while also pledging to each other, to their families, and to the community to make responsible decisions."
Smith said during a press call that Uber will provide another safe alternative for players, noting a reported drunk driving accident that occurred early this year in Texas that claimed the life of a player.
Uber and the union will give all active players personalized keychain cards with $200 in ride credits, according to The New York Times. Players will also get first-time rider promo cards to give to their friends and family.
The contract, which begins this month, is good for the 2013-2014 NFL season. Uber operates in 17 of the NFL's 31 cities including Pro Bowl host Honolulu.
Uber CEO Travis Kalanick said the on-demand car service already serves individual NFL players, but this is Uber's first professional sports account of this magnitude.

More high-profile business accounts are probably coming for the company. Uber recently expanded its executive team with three new hires, including a new senior vice president of business who's in charge of making business partnerships.

I hate when people drive drunk. Shit is selfish.
Did he do it in Nevada?
I thought about that too. From what I remember, he wasn't impaired and the they partly blamed the victim for crossing at a bad spot on the highway. Other than the a 5 million payoff to the family, I don't think there was any major punishment (if any). I know he got to play a year or two after it happened.
Missouri, which is probably worse.
I think they person was going to work and didn't use the crosswalk. He left the Dolphins and then played for the Browns a few years.
I see Donte Stallworth got off light too. Maybe it depends on how many DUIs you've had in total. Hell I dunno.

for reference sake..
These Swedes are some drankin cacs…however they don’t play no games with drinking and driving. Drunks will beat your ass if they hear you jangling car keys..u can even drink on the buses, trains, and as a passenger in a car. The party can continue all the way to the crib
it also costs about $2500 for a license. People value driving a little more. I wish America would adopt this cultural policy.
