It is very unfortunate and sad to see these accidents taking place during the
dashain period which is our biggest festival.
I believe they can put an
end to drivers drinking and driving causing accidents putting everyone at risk,
the answer is to p a law on drink driving.
Anyone caught driving while
excessively drunk should be banned for good few years, which means people will
be forced to rethink before they take charge of a vehicle when they are drunk.
Which i think will definitely make a big difference.
but unfortunately i am
not a policy maker so the only thing i can do is wish
the law is ped on drink
driving.
