Honestly, with as much youth and booze as is inevitable around Mardi Gras the city is blessed that this doesn't happen as much. Tragic for all those families hurt out to enjoy the parade for sure. Prayers that no one passes and that all the victims recover fully.

Agreed.. ive always said, there needs to be much more of a stigma around drinking & driving than there is, nationwide but especially in New Orleans.. im the least judgemental person you'll ever meet in your life in most cases-- but i will judge an ******* who's been drinking and driving (or 'buzzed driving') all day long... Penalties need to increase, and there needs to be less tolerance for this crime.
