Drunken driving cases have been increasing and have caused numerous deaths. Some people suggest drunken driving should be made into a felony while others think that tough penalties may not have much effect on road safety. My view is just as follow.
酒后开车的案例不断增加，而且还造成了大量的死亡。一些人认为酒后驾驶应该定重罪，而另外一些人认为严厉的处罚对道路交通安全可能没多大的影响。

As we all know, it is very dangerous to drive while one is drunk. Therefore, drivers shouldn’t drive after drinking in order to protect others’ life as well as their own. So far, the present Road traffic Safety Law seems to show too much mercy to drunken drivers even though they have caused much trouble to the society. A more severe punishment should be given to those who drive after they have drunk, especially to those who are drunk and have caused serious injuries or deaths while driving.
我们都知道酒后驾驶是非常危险的。所以，为了保护他人的安全以及他们自身的安全，司机喝酒后就不应该开车。到目前为止，即使他们给这个社会造成很多的麻烦，社会道路交通安全法对酒驾的司机似乎还是过于仁慈了。那些酒后驾驶的人应该得到更严厉的惩罚，尤其是那些酒驾后造成严重伤害或死亡的。

In order to crack down drunken driving, the government should introduce a more severe law. Besides, more measures should be taken to cultivate the drivers’ awareness of traffic laws and respect others’ lives as well as their own when they are driving on the road, which I think should be the key to decrease drunken driving cases.
为了打击酒后驾驶，政府应该出台更严厉的法律。此外，应该采取更多的措施来培养驾驶员在驾驶中对交通法规和尊重他人生命以及自身生命的认识，我认为这是减少醉驾的关键。
