kingpin88 3/16/2013 8:53:19 AM ReportI'm so fed up with these idiots that live in our city lucky for us it's a snowbank that got hit this time
Mr. Poster 3/16/2013 8:55:00 AM ReportWill they EVER LEARN? Stiffer fines and immediate loss of their license for a year would be a start to curbing this problem.
moosehunter2 3/16/2013 9:08:27 AM ReportI bet he is not so Smiley now!!! lmao
newcon 3/16/2013 9:17:41 AM ReportDid this idiot not read the post(s) from the last drunk driving report???
Hey Bud you're headed for S.S.Marie's infamous "Court of Public Opinion". I think the last relentless round went to over 100 attacks...only that was an 18YO girl whereas you are a seasoned and supposedly experienced 50 who is supposed to know better. Hopefully for you you're computer illiterate or just plain illiterate. I don't think you'll want to read "sootoday" for at least 4days. Just one question though...you didn't by any chance submit any condemning comments with respect to that 18YO did you????

Dead End Kid 3/16/2013 12:02:09 PM ReportHa Ha, you go newcon! I love it!
KRF91 3/16/2013 12:07:23 PM ReportHow drunk do you have to be to hit a snowbank. lol
shju 3/16/2013 12:14:56 PM ReportIt is automatic 1 year suspension of your license. mrposter
Norm 3/16/2013 12:29:48 PM ReportThat was me in the early eighties. Not to late for Stephen to turn this into a positve expierence. Give up the booze, or at least take control of these situations. Plan ahead, don't get behind the wheel. I had to pay more than once away back then. He could be going through some trying times, who knows. If so, get help, if this is isolated, once again, make a conscience decision before venturing out. For what it's worth.
Norm 3/16/2013 1:22:45 PM ReportIt's not hard to run into a snowbank this winter, some are like small mountains. That's drunk or sober.
Bad Dawg 3/16/2013 2:12:15 PM ReportWe need the judges to start handing out the stiffer sentences. They get caught, lose their licence for a couple years and still drive while their suspended.
ducky58 3/16/2013 6:57:56 PM ReportLet's start impounding their cars. You know dam well their going to drive it. Even with no licence.
lavendalilly 3/17/2013 11:17:00 PM ReportDo you honestly think this person will give a darn about what people think or post?? You are all wasting your time posting anything offensive or inspirational in hoping this erson will read it. Should he click on this story and read these comments, what do you really think will happen? Until he gets help on his own, nothing that you say or do will guide him at all. These people are selfish and ruthless. They obviously do not care about others- for if they had, this story would not be in here.
Gater 3/18/2013 3:52:37 PM ReportWhat the what I lost my license when I was 18 (Impaired) .and I knew better then.. I cant imagine being that stupid
@ 50 years old...Lucky you hit only a snow bank...Did it jump out in front of you??
Norm 3/18/2013 9:30:16 PM ReportGator, you can't imagine been that stupid, just look at some Canadian politicians, at every level.
