Friend w/ DUI Probation wont listen...

[Ttownhero]

State=Kansas. One of my best friends got caught last year on a DUI, they revoked his license and he got a diversion. Now hes on probation, with his license back, but he is still messing around with alchohol....He is a minor by the way...17!!! anyways, what can happen if he is caught as far as DWI/DUI/MIP when he is on this probation so I can tell him and try and convince him to take it easy? Thanks for your help!

Who cares what can happen to him? He obviously doesn't!

So next time you see him drinking and driving a vehicle, call the police and report his drunk a$$ to the police.

DO THIS because it is what he can do to other people that I'm concerned with and you should be as well. DO NOT let this idiot drink and drive down the road so he can kill an innocent person.
If there was a way of being sure that he would only kill himself, I'd suggest giving him a bottle of Jim beam and a full tank of gas, but there is not. So, your concern should be on the members of your family and everyone else's family who can be crippled or killed by this jacka$$!

Report him!

What will happen to him if he's caught again is he'll probably be ordered into getting the help that he needs. He's headed down a dead-end street in life, and getting caught would probably help him in the long run.

Well your friend probally will not be a friend of yours much longer. Why are you aking questions and not your friend. Kansas is probally giving your friend UA's which your "frind" eventually may not pass. Serious consequences are following your "friends" footsteps to the point they will wind your friend up in jail! I see your friend needs help due to alcoholism. This is where you CANNOT help. Your friend needs to find this out and what help on there own. Alcoholics only seek help if they truley want it. Do not pressure your friend to get help. It will not work, it will only give you hope and I can almost guarentee if your friend seeks help because someone wants them to get better, they will fall right back into their old habits in a short time. (a week, maybe) I am being honest because I have been there.

What scares me even more about your friend is your "friends" age. If this is happening now, there are going to be much harder consequences as your "friends" life goes on.

Think about this! If your friend cared about you or theirself, why aren't they e-mailing asking questions? Maybe this friend of yours does not realize the seriousness of their problem and the will effect your care, time and effort while watching them throw their life away.

Right now, tell him or her the consequences they are facing and tell them you care but cannot watch them destroy they life and stay away form this person for awhile. Let them see what they can lose in a day! And stop letting this person use you. You move on because you care about your life!

This advice would be correct if the friend were over 21 and nothing could be done except let the moron bury him/herself.....but the kid is 17!! OP...Call the kids parents and tell them...call the probation officer and tell him...do something NOW before this drunk KILLS someone!!
