"Drunken drivers should be booked under the crime of dangerous driving."

Shi Jie, a CPPCC member and lawyer in Sichuan province, said there is no proper law to follow in cases where lives are lost due to drunk driving. Shi was the lawyer for Sun Weiming, a Chengdu resident, who crushed four people to death and injured one while driving under the influence. Sun was first given a death sentence, which was later reduced to life in prison.
