Our roads and streets are getting less safe. A lot of it's due to reckless driving, and we should be reversing that trend by having stricter enforcement.

We keep, I want to say a vigilant eye on it and make sure we keep the roads safe for everyone here, it's a tough job but we do it.

It's safe to say that on the indictment, and on the video, and from what I know from his driving and the way he was performing on that video, he was falling-down drunk and had no business being behind the wheel of a car. Intoxication is an issue in this case. It's a very important issue and we are going to be able to perceive fully, with strong evidence, that he was intoxicated and that he knew what he was doing ? that he fled the scene because of it.

Fuck them all. I ought to have that tattooed on my forehead, for all the times I've thought it. Usually I am in transit, speeding in my Jeep until my lungs give out. Today, I'm driving ninety-five down 95. I weave in and out of traffic, sewing up a scar. People yell at me behind their closed windows. I give them the finger.

It would solve a thousand problems if I rolled the Jeep over an embankment. It's not like I haven't thought about it, you know. On my license, it says I'm an organ donor, but the truth is I'd consider being an organ martyr. I'm sure I'm worth a lot more dead than alive--the sum of the parts equals more than the whole. I wonder who might wind up walking around with my liver, my lungs, even my eyeballs. I wonder what poor asshole would get stuck with whatever it is in me that passes for a heart.

We've heard that they're appealing, and that's good, but they've lost a couple of cases. By all means appeal, but I don't know if that will be the silver bullet.

We're not enforcing our laws as strictly as we could. When you have a high percentage that is caused by speeding and reckless driving, that speaks to enforcement.
