Don't you think someone given the privilege of a restricted license might at least try to refrain from driving impaired? This poor victim's family has got to wonder why this 25 year old driver got such a license after two previous DUI convictions. The only times that's legitimate is if he also had an ignition interlock installed, which is not mentioned in the story or if one or both of the offenses fell off his record due to our ten year rule.

MURFREESBORO, Tenn. (AP) -- A man has been charged with vehicular homicide and driving under the influence after a Nashville cab driver was killed in a traffic accident in Murfreesboro.
According to Murfreesboro police, 38-year-old Geoffriau Powell, a driver for Allied Cab Co. in Nashville, was stopped at a gas station on Saturday morning when another vehicle slammed into his driver's side door. The impact completely crushed the driver's side and killed Powell.
The Daily News Journal (http://on.dnj.com/120E9cP ) reported that the driver of the second vehicle, 25-year-old Evan Childress, was arrested and charged with his third DUI, driving on a restricted license and vehicular homicide.
He bonded out of jail on a $55,000 bond later on Saturday.
