Kiefer Sutherland Does His Time Like A
Man 
Saturday, January 11th, 2008
It doesn't pay to drink and drive - but
it does pay to own up to your mistakes! Hanukkah has gone by,
Christmas has gone by, Christmas Eve has gone by, New Year's Eve and New
Year's have gone by...even his 41st birthday went by, and Kiefer
Sutherland spent all of the time behind bars, quietly doing laundry duty
and being a golden star inmate at Glendale City Jail.
Sutherland,
arrested in September for driving under the
influence of alcohol, turned himself into an L.A. County courthouse on
December 5th. The judge allowed him to spend his time in the city of
Glendale instead of L.A. County Jail (said to be due to
"overcrowding").

He's received hundreds of fan letters but not
visitors. (Although you could always be the first - and let us know how it went!)
A Glendale
City spokesman told PageSix that it's "lights out at 10 p.m. for Jack
Bauer." But sources say he is extremely well-behaved and polite,
though he's not eligible for early release on good behavior.
Sounds
like Kiefer's on good behavior...I'd rather see him happy and "reformed"
on Larry King Live than Paris Hilton! Good for you,
Kiefer!
According to USA Today, about 40,151 people died in
a crash involving a legally drunk driver - that law enforcement
knows about - from 2004 to 2006, in the
U.S.

We used to like Mothers Against Drunk
Driving, until members started supporting smoking bans and
things we don't agree with. But you can't deny
that M.A.D.D., mothers who started a small group in 1980, became a
major national figure in the battle against drunk
driving.
2. Well, don't let them be the only
ones!! The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has some
great tips on how you can form a group in your own community, dedicated to
safety, and behind-the-wheel sobriety.
3.
Consider donating to or volunteering for the National Council For The
Prevention of Impaired Driving (or even just stop by and check
them out!). They offer SafeRideAmerica, the service
that will pick you up and drive your car home if
you were drinking and need a ride! They even have an online "reservation" for it if you know ahead of time
that you'll be drinking and don't have a designated driver.
AMAZING!
4. Help support SafeRide America by
adding
them as a friend to your MySpace page - that's free! They are
there for you when you need them most.
