This woman must have felt all those things, but if she would have acted out 
of fear, this would not have been her action - she would never have stepped 
in a car again, or something like it, or shout at every drunk person or 
something. It was the crisis that transformed her, by going through her 
fears and act positively. You are right that fear plays a part in this, but 
only as the catalyst to start acting. And it was HER fear.
 
Installing fear in others will never work like that. That is the old way of 
the church, and didn't that bring most of all oppression, and eventually a 
need to find other maybe hypocritical ways to get away from that oppression, 
and finally a very essential need to break free from that alltogether?
 
The fear to get caught while driving drunk, and losing your licence, will 
work for a short while, when you have seen it happening to somebody, or it 
just happened to you once, but if it doesn't get replaced by a sense of 
responsibility, like this woman is trying to bring, a realization what harm 
you can bring to somebody else's life, it will not stick.

Installing fear does not work, creating consciousness on something that 
needs carefullness does.
