Drunk bus driver


Posted: Jan 8, 2010

Sorry if this is a repeat but I just saw it on the news yesterday because they did her sentencing.  She only got 90 days with 6 months of house arrest. 

She was driving 37 kids on a school bus while she was drunk, all the while, the kids were pleading with her to stop.  She kept saying she was fine and they kept telling her she wasn't.  She finally did stop, and the older kids, showing an amazing amount of maturity, helped the smaller kids off the bus, then got off themselves.  It was a chilling scene.

Nothing was said about what will happen to her  commercial license. 

In WV (I don't live far from there), they have what is called a "Steer Clear" program.  When you get busted for DUI, part of your sentence is to attend a certain number of AA meetings.  We've actually gotten people who have stayed on past the required number of meetings and become regular meetings.  I think it's a good program, and I admire the judge. 

Anyway, this lady is abominable and should have both her commercial and regular driver's license taken away, at least for awhile. That's just MHO.

Dem Sen. Baucus Drunk As A SkunkDec 29, 2009
Follow the link below. And please, don't anyone try the excuse that he's ill, or having a stroke.  There are many signs of intoxication besides the slurring, and he hasn't been hospitalized or treated medically since this episode, either. Drunk as a lord.  Stinko.  Gassed to the gills.  Blotto.  Crocked.  Blasted.  Boiled as an owl.  Hammered.  Pickled.  Loaded.  Pie-eyed.  Plastered.  Sozzled.  ...

Riding With A Driver Who Speeds And TextsDec 08, 2014
Whew!  Yesterday I rode with one of my friends to an event in a town about 45 miles away.  I've been her friend for many years but have never been a passenger in her SUV until yesterday.  I can guarantee that I won't be riding in her vehicle again. We were on the interstate.  She was tailing a semi and was sandwiched in between 3 semis:  One in front, one in back, and one on the right.  We were in the passing lane.  It seemed that we were almost sitt ...

NY Man Kills UPS Driver And Runs Over His Body,Dec 21, 2016
His bizarre reasoning for shooting an unrelated UPS driver and his odd smiling booking photo might mean he was driven more by mental illness than a political ideology. Please don't turn this into a gun control rant. We have 25,000 guns laws that include mental illness. His actions show premeditation. Can you imagine how much more media would have been given in a case like this if Obama or another Democrat had been named as the target? ...

Issa Say Senate Republicans Were DrunkJan 01, 2013
I heard this interview on CNN an hour or so ago, but here's a link.  Issa didn't go as far as to say they were drunk, just a strong insinuation, but LaTourette did.  So I guess that's the new desperate strategy/talking point of the House... throwing your own party under the bus. ...

Woman Wears Colander For Driver's License PhotoNov 17, 2014
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — A Utah woman says she encountered only brief resistance when she recently had her driver's license photo taken while wearing a colander on her head as a religious statement. Asia Lemmon, whose legal name appears on her driver's license as Jessica Steinhauser, said the pasta strainer represents her beliefs in the satirical Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. The Flying Spaghetti Monster movement, also known as "Pastafarianism," started in 2005 as a pr ...

NYC Mayor De Blasio Blasted Over Drunk-driving CommentFeb 03, 2017
Big Bird should be called Bird Brain. New York City’s Mayor Bill de Blasio said in an interview Monday that he would categorize drunk driving “that doesn’t lead to any other negative outcome” a minor offense. DeBlasio was asked on CNN about New York’s stance as a sanctuary city and its refusal to turn over illegal immigrants who commit minor offenses. He said that he did not want to “see families torn apart” over something very minor. He was asked if he considered gran ...
