THE DRUNKEN DRIVERS

The following is supposedly a true story. To be included, besides being true, the story is most likely strange, weird, surprising, or funny.

The "Environmental Engineering News" published some rather sobering information about punishment for drunk driving convictions in other countries.

 

In Australia, the names of drunk drivers are printed in newspapers under the caption, "He's drunk and in jail."

In Malaysia the driver is jailed and, if married, the spouse is jailed.

In the United Kingdom, Finland and Sweden there's an automatic jail term of one year.

In Turkey, drunk drivers are driven twenty miles out of town and forced to walk back ten miles.

In Bulgaria, a second drunk-driving conviction results in capital punishment.

In El Salvador, your first offense is your last -- execution by firing squad

I wonder what our government is doing about it, cos it seems even our law enforcers get drunk on the job, and the our roads are not even good enough for a  bicycle, needless to talk of cars. What do you think should be done to drunk drivers in Nigeria?
