Survey questions severity of Minnesota’s drunk driving laws
admin April 22nd, 2010
In a survey of experts on drunk driving laws across the United States, results show that Minnesota is strong on enforcement but softer than many states when it comes to punishing drunk drivers, according to an article from The Star Tribune.
The article says Minnesota has no minimum sentence for criminal vehicular homicide, and nearly 900 people have been killed in alcohol-related Minnesota car accidents over the past five years.
What is your opinion of Minnesota drunk driving laws? Are they too lenient? What punishment or penalties should someone face if another driver or bystander dies as a result of driving under the influence?
