Thanks to the efforts of MADD and the fact that one can quantitatively compare BAC against a legal limit, DUI motorists do tend to get prosecuted. Anti-DUI crusading DAs, such as New York's Kathleen Rice, help this cause, as well. What we need now is to prosecute distracted motorists aggressively, but our society still lacks the political will to do so. I hope Ray LaHood's "Focus Driven" campaign against texting and yakking on the cell phone while driving will help build a groundswell of public opinion.
