Sure the sentence might be too much. 7-8 years might be suffice. But I totally disagree with Seems more like a 2-5 year offense, and unless you can point me to even one incident of a person that's been killed by this behavior the argument about it being potential murder etc. Here is one for life sentence: http://newsfeed.time.com/2012/05/21/texas-man-sentenced-to-45-years-for-drunk-driving/ http://newsfeed.time.com/2012/05/21/texas-man-sentenced-to-4... So do a quick search. Why do I disagree? Because that's a reckless behavior. Did you read the article? He did it twice. Twice. Twice. As someone have put it, if you were on the aircraft, how would you feel about your safety? How would feel about people who are important to you on that aircraft? Of course we should punish assholes driving on the roads. If you have problem with your local laws on handling bad drivers, please talk to your local council members/congressmen to do a better job. If they think 14 years is too much, they can appeal and I think there is a high chance of lowering to 7-8 years. But whatever the length might be, he deserves a good hell lengthy sentence. And sometimes, lengthy sentence is to scare people off. This is what I called "establish an example."
