Every day I am more outraged by our lenient courts.

A drunken driver, hit-and-run, kills someone, gets 30 days in jail and he can’t drive for five years (“Drunken driver gets 30 days in jail, probation for fatal hit-and-run collision,” Star-Advertiser, June 11)?

Boo-hoo. Really? And how is this going to be enforced? Maybe Honolulu Police Chief Susan Ballard can take a page from the previous chief, Louis Kealoha, and assign some of her elite cops to follow him around for five years, to make sure he doesn’t get behind the wheel.

By the way, I live on Atkinson Drive where this occurred. There is a green arrow for a safe left turn at the corner of Atkinson and Kapiolani Boulevard. However, if you are drunk, perhaps this is not observed.
