OPINION

     MEMORANDUM.

     Defendant pleaded guilty of OUIL, third offense felony, MCL 257.625(6); MSA 9.2325, and possession of a loaded firearm in an automobile, MCL 750.227c; MSA 28.424(3). Defendant was sentenced to concurrent terms of eighteen months to five years and one to two years, respectively. On appeal, defendant argues that he is entitled to resentencing because the trial court failed to articulate adequate reasons for the sentence. We affirm.

     The record does not support defendant's claim. The trial court at sentencing referred to defendant's five prior known drinking and driving convictions, the consequent danger defendant posed to society and the need to get defendant "off the street," defendant's criminal history, and the related firearm charge. These are appropriate and adequate considerations for the sentences. People v Coles, 417 Mich 523, 550; 339 NW2d 440 (1983).

     Affirmed.
