DUI Commercial

I heard a completely ridiculous commercial on the radio this morning when I was on my way to work.  It was for a law firm.  It claimed, "A DUI could happen to anyone."  What kind of bullshit is that?  A DUI can only happen to someone who stupidly gets behind the wheel after drinking.  

The commercial went on to talk about how a DUI conviction could ruin your life, so you should use X lawyer to help get you off.  

What the crap??  First, let's tell you that the DUI you got isn't really a big deal because everyone drives drunk.  Then, let's tell you that we can get you off so that the DUI doesn't really have any repercussions.

What world is this?  Driving drunk is WRONG.  It doesn't happen to everyone.  And, there should be MAJOR repercussions for doing it.  Instead of that cop pulling you over, you could have killed innocent people.  The stakes should be high.  Drive drunk and you should have to pay a high price.  There should be a stigma.   Not just, "Oopsy, you made a tiny boo boo.  Let us fix that for you."  Grr... sometimes I hate the world for its stupidity.
