Zachery Ty Bryan is headed to jail for 16 months stemming from a 2024 DUI arrest – and this time, he’s not walking away with probation.

    from the article:

    “Court docs show Bryan also admitted to having two prior DUI convictions, putting him in even hotter water. If he ever gets hit with a fourth, the penalties only get harsher.”

    There is the problem right there. How many chances do those with DUI charges deserve? It’s just more passes for them to seriously hurt or kill someone.

      Honestly, zero. I’ve always said first drunk driving offense should be immediate, permanent revocation of license. First offense. Zero tolerance.

      It’s bad enough to deal with regular mistakes and texters. DUI offenses are treated so casually it’s actually a meme.

      Maybe after a very strict re-training. And signing something acknowledging EXTREME consequences if they get caught again.

      And none of this pleading out stuff, either. Even if they’re just sleeping drunk in the driver seat in a parking lot. No mercy.
