After the crash happened, I was so humiliated and embarrassed. I thought of Mothers Against Drunk Drivers, that they must hate me.

My mother is still battling alcoholism.

A drunk driver is very dangerous. So is a drunk backseat driver if he's persuasive.

I have been brought up and trained to have the utmost contempt for people who get drunk.

My driving, I've been accused of not being the best, most safest driver.

I am who I am today because of my mother.

I have a responsibility, and it's something that I did wrong, and if I could personally apologize to every single person that has lost a loved one from drunk driving I would.

I will never have a sip of alcohol and get behind the wheel again. Regardless if I'm 300% sure that I just had a sip and I can drive. It doesn't matter.

Yeah, I know, some people are against drunk driving, and I call those people 'the cops.' But you know, sometimes, you've just got no choice; those kids gotta get to school!

I am a mom as well as a senator!
