Free Funerals for Drink-drivers

A US funeral home offered free funerals for people who planned to drink and drive on New Year's Eve. McGuire, Jennings, and Miller Funeral home said that people had to sign a contract saying that they planned to drink or do drugs and then drive on December 31. If they were to be killed in a car crash while driving, the funeral home of Rome, Georgia will bury them for free. The free funeral would cover preparation of the body, a coffin, a grave, and a hearse.Apparently it was meant to make people think about driving home drunk.

  • that is really funny i guess i could guess by saying that its to scare someone
  • what okay this makes no sence at all to meee.
  • Did anyone sign it? lol. That's a cleaver idea though
  • Wow. This is ridiculous. Even if this was to get people to think about drunk drving I think it is unsmart to give people a reason to drive and drink.
  • I don't know why you would give something free to someone like that.
  • This is a weird story but it does make sense.
  • really, if you think about it, it's a good idea. They are showing them that there IS a possibility that they can die from doing that and make them think twice about it. Yet there are those "It could never happen to me" people.
  • I think its dumb. Because the ones who plan to drink or do drugs and drive, are apparently the ones who dont think in the first placee. so do you honestly think that they are going to stop and think about driving home drunk, like it says above? no, not at all.. and if they choose to risk their lives, thats their fault. no funeral home needs to pay for the decisons the intoxicated or high make.
  • That is so stupid. If they are that stupid to make a choice like that they should have the consequences of paying for they'er own funeral!!!
  • I wonder if someone did die for drunk driving?
