what should the penalty be when a drugged driver kills or injures another person?

Question

what do you belive the laws should be according to you?
is punishment effective in preventing an offender from driving while impaired again?

if you could make your own law against drugged driving, what would it be?
thanks :]

Answer 1

The same as a drunk driver would get

Answer 2

There would be at least two charges. One, Driving While Impaired (same as drunk driving). Two, Manslaughter. Most states impose anywhere from 5 to 20 years for the crime.

Despite punishments, drunks always drive again. First because they are drunk and not thinking. And two, they always believe they can get away with it one more time.

Answer 3

Driving While Impaired.
Whatever the Court decides.

Answer 4

i'm relatively helpful I even have not. As i'm going to have reported earlier, i became hit by utilising a Land Rover whilst attempting to flow a hectic highway outdoors our domicile while i became 14....yet i'm relatively helpful there became no alcohol in contact....and on the time, i became confident it became my fault.....because of the fact the pedestrian who could have been concentrating greater totally on attempting to get around the line. I did have a school chum who lost her older sister in a highway accident which I *think of* became brought about by utilising a inebriated driving force while i became a teenager....yet i became not somewhat on the edge of this college chum of mine....and that i hardly knew her sister in any respect. i will hardly think of what something like this could be like for a kinfolk to flow by way of.

Answer 5

Same penalty as a drunk driver who kills someone. A felony conviction and time in prison.

Answer 6

The punishment should be extremely severe.

Answer 7

I think it should be a life sentence, especially if it is illegal drugs

Answer 8

DWI is DWI same rules apply

Answer 9

For me definitely life in prison, because they kill someone.

Answer 10

Death sounds good to me.
