Dennis Minner
“One night after drinking I decided to drive back to my house. As a fraternity brother and I drove back I swerved and almost hit a parked car. We just laughed and thought it was so funny. I dropped him off and as I was about a mile from my house I passed out and my new truck ended up wrapped around a tree. It was warped so hard that the opposite side was dented from the truck bending.”
"Buddy" Farris
“Buddy Farris, a Virginia state trooper… As Farris walked up to the stopped car, a drunk driver hit him at 65 mph. The hood ornament of the car pierced through Farris' lower back, thrusting him into the back of the parked car. He flipped over the car and landed halfway on the interstate and the breakdown lane.”
Kyle Baldwin
“Many nights when I wasn't able to drive, I would walk to the bars or a friend would pick me up. I once lost my permit for DUI and almost lost my job because of it... You may not have a drinking problem. You may be on drugs or you may have something else in your life that has taken control of you.”
Matthew Needham
“He got into his car, but was in no condition to be able to drive. He crashed just a short distance before arriving at his house. Through drunk driving they had to pull out his dead body from among the ruins.”
Mark Larson
“My name is Mark and although I’ve never had an addiction or a ‘need’ for alcohol, my abuse of it could have cost me my life on 2 separate occasions… A night of fun and drinking could have turned extremely tragic for my family and the families of those I could have killed.”
