Leandra’s law

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

It looks like the most recent law that makes having kids under the age of 16 in a car driven by a drunk driver, a felony is working. Two such arrests and charges were delivered this week in NYS towns of Glen and Bethelem.

The other improvement was to mandate igntition interlock devices on second time offenders First timers usually get a plea to DWAI, not covered in the law. It won’t take effect until next Fall, but was signed by teh Governor.

Best wishes for all in the upcoming year and decade. Don’t forget to smile.

Tiger Woods

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009

Tiger Woods’ situation could be clarified if the blood alcohol tests done routinely at hospitals after personal injuries occur were not confidential.

On the other hand, basic evidence is rapidly disappearing, like blood alcohol or other drug impairment. However, if Tiger was alledgely racing away from an enraged wife holding a golf club, and he leaves the scene fearful in a big rush, crashes the car and the wife races after him with a raised golf club, smashing the rear window of his car; there is no case.

The law is specific about husband abuses from wives, so case closed.

Actually, since there is no current victim or person to blame and all serious evidence has now disappeared, why not move on to important, tragic cases.
