Local GM supervisor gets drunk, kills college senior with his 2010 Camaro

http://www.kansascity.com/2010/08/22...dies-in-i.html

I could hear my Dad yelling at the TV over the phone when it came on the news. He worked for GM for 40 years. Punk ass from MI comes down here with a new 'maro and decides to test the safety rating against the rear end of a G6 at 95 MPH. The poor girl in the G6 may have survived the collision but not the resulting fire. The driver of the G6 was pulled out by a high school student driving home from work. The prisons aren't very fun here in MO.

I didn't see anything about him being from michigan, but Kansas City rather. That's some terrible news. One of those things that really gets me mad. I honestly don't understand why every new vehicle doesn't have a breathalyzer built in. It would save so many lives.

I hope this jerkoff has to do some hard time for this. There's zero excuse to drive drunk.

Some sort of breathalyzer function that kills the engine if you're blowing above the legal limit. I think you're onto something.

It skidded for 1000 feet?!
There is no excuse for this kind of behavior. My condolences are with the poor girl's family.
