I found out that my sister drove home drunk last night in our mom's car, and it's not the first time she's done it. She lies constantly to our parents and to me, is manipulative and does not seem to care about how her actions affect anyone in our family. She does drugs and lies about it, and she also smokes in our mom's car even though she has been told repeatedly not to. She lies to our mom about that as well. I don't know what to do about her. The fact that she's taking our parents' trust for granted is sickening to me, and even more disturbing is the fact that she's driving home drunk. When I asked her about it today, her response was, "I wasn't that drunk". She's an idiot. I'm fed up with her. She's 19 years old and needs to grow up. What should I do?

You cannot ever trust an addict. An addict will continue to push the envelope until every avenue has been exhausted. An addict's only concern is getting the next fix, so they will sell out everything and everyone in their lives to get that.
First of all, get a keyed lock put on your bedroom door, or at least on your closet door to turn it into a safe. At some point your addict sister will steal you blind. Your mother also needs to do this as well if she doesn't want a lot of stuff to go missing.
Your sister is 19 and should be out working towards supporting herself instead of partying and doing drugs and DUI.
Your mother is the only one that can draw the line here. You need to talk to your mom about your sister's DUI and drug habits... Mom may either be ignorant or in denial of the situation. If your mom really expects to have that car for very long, she needs to keep tight control of the keys and never let the addict daughter have them.

There is really nothing you can do. That is up to your mom or dad. However, I would certainly let them know about the drinking then it will be to them to decide what to do. This situation does put you in a position that you do not deserve to be in. Good luck.

Report her to the police when she drives,
She needs to be arrested and her license taken away.
You will not only save her life but someone elses.
Do it!
