Drunk Driving Video Analysis

Improved Essays
I thought that this video inspired me greatly, it taught me how serious drunk driving can be and how it affects other people's lives. Drunk driving is serious and can be fatal to other people's lives and can really mess up yours also. Being drunk and driving can ruin your life and others, or even end them. Just like that man who got hit by that drunk driver and killed his wife and his son plus his daughter. It must’ve been tragic, also the drunk driver just walked away and never rendered aid. You’d think that it would be the least you could do. All of these tragic experiences that these people have dealt with in their life, it would be hard for me to even talk about. Its horrible how these drunk drivers just walk away or even decide to drive

    My recommendation for Jimmy would be for him to continue to strengthen his fine and gross motor skills. Jimmy really enjoyed playing the guitar when I let him play with the instruments. If Jimmy were to play the guitar that would continue to work on his fine motor skills. Keep challenging him, if there is something that he isn’t too good at he will get mad. Once he learns the game and he works on it he will gain strength and will learn not to get mad when he doesn’t know how to do something.…
