On Practicability of Drunk Driving Sentence

由醉酒驾驶引发的一系列恶性交通事故震惊了全社会,强大的民意和社会舆论是醉酒驾驶刑法规范的立法契机。刑法修正案(八)已经将醉酒驾驶列为一个独立的罪名并已经实施,然而对于这一行为是否必须以修改刑法典予以解决尚存争议,文章认为醉驾入刑是不必要的,并分析了几点原因,以期引起学界、实务界关注。

The accidents caused by drunk driving frighten our society,and thus the loud voice of the public opinion made the drunk driving sentence possible.The drunk driving sentence has been written into No 8 article in amendment of the criminal law and now put into practice.
