DUI Orange County-repeat offenders never learn!

Some people just never learn - even when they smack into a patrol car parked at a red light! In Laguna Hills last night at 1:58 am a driver was taken into custody on suspicion of driving under the influence after, officials said, he rear-ended a deputy's car that was stopped at a red light.
No one was injured in the crash, but the Laguna Niguel man was asked to take a field-sobriety test after the crash and failed, said Lt. Jim England of the Orange County Sheriff's Department.
The suspect, a Mr. Banir Ganatra, 32, has had multiple charges of DUI and other driving issues. Ganatra was driving a 2008 Mercedes-Benz.
I gotta ask - if he has enough money to drive a 2008 Mercedes-Benz (in my opinion a nice car) - why doesn't this repeat offender have enough money to pay for a taxi or chauffeured transportation in Orange County?
Before you get behind the wheel if you've been drinking ask yourself if the risks are worth the punishment. I've heard reported that a DUI in Orange County costs in the neighborhood of $10,000! An Orange County Limo would be around $400 (depending on hours an distance)!
