The poem , is a story with a moral. All too true moral, most people that get killed in automobile accidents are killed by drunk drivers.. No matter how carefull and law abiding you are, in this case not drinking and driving, there is someone that does not care about how they could ruin someone and their families by drinking and driving.

Sometimes even when we make the right choices, we end up suffering for someone else's stupid choices. I think this is a very good poem and should be passed on to others. Hopefully, it will cause others to stop and think BEFORE going out to party. Think, be careful, and DON'T DRIVE DRUNK.
