And what's next? Why not:
- Report tax evaders
- Report illegal tuning
- Report bad drivers
- Report large collections of guns
- Report speeders
- Report shady looking dudes - maybe they're pedophiles
- Report excessive water usage
- Report smokers who smoke around children or in their cars

Why not these people, because they do not pose a threat to our loved one's and the general public. Impaired driving is a totally selfish act and is always preventable. Here in Canada the penalty for a first offense is far too lax. I would not be concerned if someone innocent is pulled over. Only the guilty are charged with impaired driving, if they are over the limit they are guilty, if they refuse to take the test that's their problem. (In Canada it is an offense to refuse to take a breathalyser test if there are reasonable grounds to demand one).
People who worry about the civil liberties of impaired drivers are out of step with the general public or are lawyers.
