"Let us remind you that there is no excuse to be drinking, taking prescription drugs that impair you, illegal drugs and then getting behind the wheel," Mitchell said. "There's absolutely no excuse for it. It's preventable and thankfully in this case, no innocent people were hurt and neither was the driver."
