No wonder driving when impaired is not considered a serious crime -- Roger Walsh was an accident waiting to happen, and yet he had not had his licence permanently suspended after the first few convictions. I hate to think how many more like him are on the road. The article began by describing the deplorable lack of commonsense penalties for drunk driving, as in his case, but it went on only to discuss the methods and questionable value of roadside checking, and no more on the little that happens to anyone who's caught in roadside checking anyway. Who was not sickened to hear that Walsh had had so many prior convictions for impaired driving but was still allowed to have a valid driver's licence along with the freedom to drive a vehicle? Wow, just keep that fine money coming in, I guess.
