This picture is crazy
 MONTERREY, Mexico (AP) -- A car plowed into a weekend bike race along a highway near the U.S.-Mexico border, killing one and injuring 10 others, police said. The 28-year-old driver was apparently drunk and fell asleep when he crashed into the race, said police investigator Jose Alfredo Rodriguez. A photograph taken by a city official showed bicyclists and equipment being hurled high into the air by the collision. Rodriguez said Juan Campos was charged with killing Alejandro Alvarez, 37, of Monterrey. Authorities said the wreck happened 15 minutes into the 34-kilometer (21 mile) race Sunday along a highway between Playa Bagdad and Matamoros, across from Brownsville, Texas. Campos said he is an American citizen living in Brownsville. The U.S. Consulate could not immediately confirm that. "We are looking into the incident in terms of whether American citizens were involved," -------------------- Cruisin down the street in my Infiniti...always lookin for my next trip to Sin City

that is messed up! i don't think the law can fully justify this wrong doing. my dad was involved in an accident with a drunk driver that nearly killed him. i think the punishment needs to be greater for DUI than it is.

The driver should have to wear a helmet the rest of his life, along with velcro strapped pro wings, brown cords, and a yellow stripped shirt with a bowl haircut after spending time in the pin. Should never get to drive anything other than a smart car as well. That is how they should do things. Make them purchase economic vehicles (if they even get to drive again) that couldn't hurt a toddler....... Okay, maybe a smart car could hurt a toddler, but I think 5 of them can tip that over too.
