On the night of May 9, 2011, the famous musician Gao Xiaosong ran his car into three other cars in Beijing, because he drank(饮酒) too much. Gao went to prison(监狱) for six months and paid some money for it. “I am so sorry for that and I want to ask people around me not to drive after drinking,” Gao said.
From May 1 on, drunk drivers have to pay some money, and they can’t drive for five years or more. The new law(法律) sees drunk driving as a crime(犯罪).
In the West, drunk driving is also a crime. In the U.S. , if the police catch(捉住) a drunk driver, the driver will pay money, lose his or her driving license(驾照) and even go to prison. If the driver wants to drive again, he or she must do many helpful things.
