Most of us probably know someone who has died or been injured in an alcohol-related accident. One of the best solutions for stopping drunken driving is automatic license revocation and a mandatory jail sentence. Unfortunately, only some states use this method. Another thing the government should do is always test for alcohol and drugs in fatal car crashes to help prosecute drunken and drugged drivers. If drivers really are heavy drinkers, these solutions will not deter them.
Some people do drink a lot, or there are some times that it is suitable for adults to drink.
I do not think drinking is a bad thing if it's for a celebration or just a little bit, but excessive drinking is extremely unhealthy. It is up to you whether you want to drink a lot, but remember your safety and that of others could depend on how you act afterwards.
