Once I was 16 in 1992, I used to be hit by a drunken driver.  Medical care and remedy within the Bay Space and Central Valley made up half of my teenage life.  After three many years, I talk with a deep tone, learn lips, can’t drive and I stroll unsteadily.

Have a look at the outcomes for Independence Day Weekend Most Enforcement Interval for 2023 and 2024:  CHP made 1,224 DUI arrests in 2023 and made 1,336 DUI arrests in 2024.  Drivers, please make DUI arrests come down this yr.

Summer time holidays are coming. You possibly can keep away from disturbing reminiscences like a crash, accidents and even demise in the event you keep sober whereas driving.

Taking I-680 to go residence after ingesting at a festivity?  A sober driver ensures secure summer season roads.  Freedom and security go hand in hand.

CIF overreacts toathlete’s celebration

Re: “Celebration costs girl state track crown” (Web page C1, June 3).

It was improper that the lady from North Salinas Excessive was disqualified after successful the 400 for what the CIF known as an unsportsmanlike act.

She celebrated by stepping away from the monitor and taking a fireplace extinguisher to her sneakers. She didn’t do it in entrance of her opponents. What’s improper with that? It was a drop-the-microphone second, and so they ruined it for her.

The CIF needs to be extra involved about guaranteeing honest competitors within the women’ occasions. Commonsense is unfortunately missing.

Tax hike would bemore largesse for BART

Re: “Lawmakers advance transit tax hike bill” (Web page A1, June 4).

The proposed gross sales tax enhance is one other handout for BART workers.

They all the time discover cash to provide a pay enhance to the workers, who’re among the many most extremely paid transit staff within the space. Even throughout COVID, the general public company gave a pay enhance.

Our senator on the time, Steve Glazer, opposed it, and he was slapped within the face by fellow progressive Democrats.

BART is a public company run by the unions. Even the inspector common appointed by the Legislature stepped down. She couldn’t do her job as a result of she was stonewalled by the company.

A fraud is occupyingthe Oval Workplace

Donald Trump bragged he would deliver down inflation, then, as president, admitted there’s not a lot he may do about it.

He mentioned he would deliver down crime, however pardoned convicted criminals and put a clause in a invoice that neuters the judicial department.

He takes the Oath of Workplace to guard the U.S. Structure, then violates the First, Fourth, Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments plus the Emoluments Clause. He cuts tens of hundreds of jobs and eliminates companies in an effort to economize and produce down the debt, however then has an enormous, ugly invoice that provides trillions to the deficit. Trump says he’ll weed out fraud however then pardons individuals convicted of fraud, and he flip-flops on his tariffs virtually each day, creating chaos on this planet markets.

The fraud we have to weed out sits within the Oval Workplace.

Deficit answer alwaysis to take from the poor

The cartoon by Michael Ramirez printed within the East Bay Instances on June 4 (Web page A6) misleads. It has a toddler declaring “the obvious” repair to the nationwide debt: scale back spending.

That may imply, within the present administration, eradicating important companies from much more determined Individuals by means of elevated cuts to Medicaid, Medicare, SNAP, EITC and so forth.

The proper reply is much more apparent, and simply: return tax charges to the degrees of the Nineteen Fifties, when American prosperity grew, and implement assortment.

Cease transferring wealth from these with too little to these with obscenely a lot, because the laughably named “Big Beautiful Bill” will do (as confirmed by quite a few nonpartisan, competent analysts).
