He should have used Uber

Dude has a problem. He's had one since he was a freshman and went out to a party on a ranch near Boerne hosted by a certain UT benefactor that had SUV's for the kids to drive around on said ranch, and Ced wrapped one around a big a$$ tree.

Warning flags should have gone up at that point, but when you're one of the best HS running backs in state history, sh!t gets swept under the rug.

I love the kid-- he's got no excuses though. He made tons of money and should grow up and be a man. Austin isn't your personal playpen and if you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes.

We need stiff penalties for DUI's in this country. With uber and all other services like it there is no excuse to ever get a DUI anymore. Especially if you have money. The DUI rate in this country should be near zero in today's world.

We've always had taxis but a lot of people don't use them. There's more fear in leaving your car or spending money then killing someone or yourself by driving home drunk. Austin no longer has Uber but they do still have taxis.

I'm not pointing fingers at Benson here because in my younger days, unfortunately I drove drunk quite often as a kid in college and throughout my 20's. I'm very fortunate to not have accumulated a dwi or 2 or worse. The penalties now are pretty stiff and can really effect your job etc.
 
Uber isn't an option in Austin, but yeah there is no excuse. DUIs are a pretty interesting study in our society. I would venture that nearly 100% of our society that drinks has probably been in a situation that could of easily resulted in a DUI had they had just a smidge of bad luck. The horror stories of drunk drivers are absolutely terrifying and make you want to burn them at the stake. It sounds like a no brainer, but I can't pretend that DUI arrests haven't become a booming industry.

A lot of young folks did. Difference is Benson is not 20 any longer and also has been doing stupid stuff for awhile now as an adult. The guy needs a reality check because apparently he's not getting it.
