what's happenin?

during the break I've heard two bad news about accidents and witnesses two real accidents with my own eyes. One of the two stories that I've heard was bad...the guy actually passed away because of drunk driving...Not to be dramatic and all but I am kinda scared...not in a sense that it might happen to me, but more like what's happening? what's with all the accidents? I guess it's the season ... Summer is the time where all people parties and stuff...but I guess u need to be extra careful when you drive...it's not only your life that is at stakes but other people's as well...that's all...
