This page will be a continual work in progress as there are new stories coming out in the news and online about people making the poor choice to drink and drive. Some of those stories are funny, some sad, and some just make us upset. Do a search in your favorite search engine and you will see that there is a plethora of DWI-related news out there. As new and interesting things come up, they will be added to this page.
The following is a sampling to whet your appetite:
News Stories
What happened to our sense of fairness? What about our sense of humor? NY County has had to alter its online DWI Hall of Shame! Come on, folks. Shouldn’t we be able to spot those people from a distance?
You just have to love the Midwestern United States. Here’s a guy that got busted driving drunk on his mower! I don’t think this is the kind of publicity Missouri is looking for, sir.
What really irks me is when a member of law enforcement gets into legal trouble. I know they are human just like the rest of us, but I feel they should hold themselves to a higher standard – don’t you? That said, here is a Chicago cop arrested for a fatal DUI crash.
You know a cop has had a good night when they are able to catch two drunk drivers using the same vehicle! Here’s a tip to any drunk passengers that think they are clever: If you’re buddy gets stopped for dui, just keep your rear planted in the passenger seat. The officer is not so distracted that they won’t notice the vehicle leaving.
If this isn’t enough for you, simply do an online search for “dwi news in <your state here>” and I am sure you’ll find plenty of good stories!
DWI/DUI Blogs
This first one I found pretty interesting. They seem to indicate that our courts need some improvement in handling DWI/DUI cases.
This is a great blog about DWI across the USA. I really like the picture of the officer on the top. “Excuse me sir, how much have you had to drink tonight?”
Check out the DUI blog from the state of Georgia. They have a lot of good stuff in there – like the article about Heather Locklear getting pulled over for drunk driving. Bad girl, Heather!
A little closer to my home, the good people in Washington State are blogging about DUI issues in their state and across the country. They have some great international stories in there, as well.
This last one is all about the state of Arizona. Actually, it is maintained by a law firm there. It’s interesting to see how a lawyer blogs about DUI.
Webcasts
Here’s the recent story about Yankee’s pitcher Joba Chamberlain charged with DWI. Hmmm. . .will they be renegotiating that contract?
I just had to include this site since it does have webcasts, along with a bunch of other information. This is for a DUI lawyer in California and I just love the site name: topgundui.com. Maverick? This is Goose. Are those flashing lights behind me?
I wanted to include this PDF calendar from the North Carolina Advocates for Justice. Not a webcast in itself, but it has links to many related webcasts and other articles.
Since this is a fairly new medium for some, there aren’t a lot of webcasts or podcasts out there related to DWI/DUI. However, new ones will be added as they show up. In the meantime, you can always entertain yourself with a bunch of videos of drunk drivers and see what happened to them!
