Sadly, I am sure he will get off.  If it were my family member in that race, he would not.

Madd (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) say that drunk driving crashes are not accidents. He made a chose to get behind the wheel when drunk.

Wow...that's my worst nightmare come true. Best wishes to all the riders and I hope in the end he gets what he deserves. Which I hope is a very large, very lonely cellmate...

My God, that picture breaks my heart. Yes, he should get the needle for that crap.

He was drunk and fell asleep, hell, it looks like mid-day. When did he start drinking?

Not sure if they have the death penalty in Mexico....But a life sentence in a Mexican Prison would surely suck.

Makes me absolutely sick to my stomach. Hubby is racing a crit tonight on an open course, something he does every week. You just don't think someone would be that stupid and careless and irresponsible, but the pic doesn't lie.

Saw the picture in my morning paper and was stunned. When you consider how much time we spend on bikes and racing, it could really happen anytime. Drunk driving or not, we all know there are some really BAD drivers out there.

Made the mistake of showing my wife that picture last night....boy I'm dumb.  Hope everyone recovers quickly.

Did I read that the drunk guy was claiming to be an American from Brownsville?
