Here in beautiful downtown Catemaco, Veracruz, WUI would probably be the more appropriate term, because the town is so small that driving is a waste of gasoline. If anyone does not know the abbreviations: (DUI means Driving Under The Influence, of usually alcohol, or drugs, WUI would be Walking Under the Influence).
In a recent conversation, after listening to the usual litany about why to live in Mexico, such as culture, beauty, customs, etc., I squawked about the benefit of the lack of drunk driving enforcement which so many gringos in Mexico enjoy.
I never had a chance to mention my perceived sentiment of official disregard of drunken driving offenses, especially for high-paying drunken gringos and so called "juniors" (sons of the rich).
Has anyone ever heard of a politician or any famous person being arrested for drunk driving in Mexico? Are there no Mel Gibsons in Mexico?
