Getting a DUI is a wake up call. To joke about it means there will probably be a second one. I don't know about in your state but in NY, a second charge and conviction within a ten year period counts as a felony. If she wants to keep her license and not have a felony conviction on her record I would inform her of the consequences.

- In our state it hits felony level at the 4th instance (if prior 3 happened in proceeding 7 years) but the first through third offense penalties are no laughing matter. At this time, my ex is pissed that a) I was pissed about how she treated me when i was called to pick her up and b) pissed that I called out her shit for drinking/driving and screwing her life over in general.
  
  Needless to say, she'll not be listening to any advice from me. Fortunately, her best friend won't hesitate to call her out and hopefully to counteract the negative influence of her idiot girlfriend.

Al-anon. for people affected by alcoholism. You qualify. Seriously. Not everyone drinks. Some can control and enjoy it. The alcoholic loses mastery over it. Unconditional love and tolerance is the code. If you get connected with al anon you will find how to help and how not to help. Priceless free counceling for those affected. check it out.

- Thanks. I've already started checking out a message board for Al-Anon and reading up on some suggested materials. At some point, I will probably attend some meetings too. Thanks again.

Don't give up on here for this minor mistake, whether she joked about it or not. If she needs help then help her. Or teach her not to drive after drinking. Cause fuck man everyone drinks its hard to find a girl who don't
