Three months after finishing my undergraduate studies, I was arrested for DWAI. I got very drunk, got behind the wheel and drove a half-hour east into the next county. The highway I was on was a westbound road, so for 30 minutes I was driving the wrong way toward oncoming traffic. Luckily this was a sleepy road in a sleep county around four in the morning. Someone spotted me and called the police. Months later in a court-ordered class, I learned something I desperately wish schools would teach to children: the fatal mistake drunk drivers make isn’t getting behind the wheel after they’re drunk.
