Gao crash is wakeup call for celebrities

Pop singer Gao Xiaosong crashed his SUV into three vehicles in Dongzhimen on Monday night when he was drunk. Do you think he and other celebrities will really take this as a lesson?

We should not tolerate this behavior. Celebrities have more influence than us normal people and should receive much more severe punishments. I remembered movie actor Zhou Jie once drove into a Beijing taxi while drunk and then ran away. What a coward. It's not just a traffic accident; it's about human lives. No one will complain if the laws get stricter. To solve this long-time headache, it needs strict regulation and enforcement, but on the other hand legal means are never sufficient in dealing with drunken driving, which needs constant media attention, as well as self-discipline of every individual. It's such a shame that people no longer care about losing mianzi, or "face", when it comes to traffic rules. You can see people don't wait for the traffic lights to change or jump lines pretending nothing has happened. I'm really fed up with that.

Beijing authorities plan to relocate up to 1 million low-income "mouse tribe" residents from former civil air defense shelters this year due to safety concerns. What do you think?
