I was quite upset when I read this story on the Ottawa Sun's website this morning. It makes light of a very serious issue, drunk driving. Just because the man in question was driving a lawn mower rather than a conventional motor vehicle, doesn't mean that he wasn't a threat to other people.
The story leads off with the line, "imagine what his lawn looks like," which is a disgusting attempt to make his crime seem less of a crime and more of a hilarious anecdote. Dangerous driving is never a joke; people's lives and bodily integrity could have been at risk.
I encourage the Ottawa Citizen to stop making light of impaired driving - it's never a joke.
