Eureka! - A novel way to stop Drink & Drive...(atleast to some extent)

Last Friday, I was waiting at Ambal Nagar, Bus stop at around 11:30 PM, to board bus to my native, Neyveli. One can easily spot a TASMAC(TN State Marketing Corporation) shop, in plain words "Sarakku" kadai(liquor shop), opposite to this bus stand.

Meanwhile, there were a group of 5-6 members having 3 bikes and tottering around in front of the TASMAC shop..... when one begins to start the bike the other fellow from the other bike, brings the helmet and tries to hit this guy and other two in the third bike fell down completely.... Whoever watches this, can just wonder how, these 'Kudimagan's(drunkards) can reach their house, the worst part is that, they not alone risk their lives, but other's who drive on the roads....

No Certainly not!.... I would become a fool(aren't you already?), If I were to preach regarding the ill effects of drinking and those who drinks are not pappa's to get them brainstormed....

Everything has a limit and nothing should be done at the cost of others lives.... There are numerous ways to get drunk, by affecting none...

Let's come to our main topic...Stopping the Drink and Drive cases....

Steps to be taken.....

*) Police department should specially appoint, personnel's along the TASMAC shops and around BAR's

*) They should be clad in civilian dress and have an eye over the one who drives the vehicle...

*) If any one is found to be drunk and driving the vehicle, the particular vehicle no. should be noted down and informed to their colleagues at the immediate next signal or level crossing...

*) With no questioning, of License, Insurance and Helmet checking, they should be asked to blow out the air and caught red-handed and their bikes should be seized and their license should be suspended for a while and a heavy amount of fine has to be collected.....

*) I'm sure this will definitely work-out....

Planning to take this to the notice of the Concerned authorities...
