He apologized for his actions, and expressed incredible sadness. \u201cI still cannot imagine the impact on your lives \u2013 the impact in which I am prepared to take full responsibility,\u201d he said in court.Yet, despite the genuine regret heard in the courtroom, the fact remained that three teenagers were still dead because one man chose to drive drunk. Three lives lost forever and three families destroyed over one incredibly foolish and selfish act.The incident took place earlier this year along I-80 near Sacramento. As reported by Fox 40, the 24 year-old drunk driver ended up in the wrong lane of the highway, driving without lights at nearly 85 miles per hour. His car slammed directly into another vehicle carrying three teenagers \u2013 killing them all. The man\u2019s recorded blood alcohol level after the accident was 0.14 \u2013 nearly two times the legal limit.At his sentencing the judge remarked the man\u2019s actions had irreversible consequences. Per the court\u2019s decision, the man will spend 14 years behind bars for the crime. He will be 38 years old when he is eventually released.Unfortunately, this is just one of the many DUI accidents that have claimed innocent lives in the state of California over the past year.
