We need to turn more of the population into convicted criminals (yes, DUI is considered “criminal” in many states) so we can keep the prison industry going strong, we can keep more lawyers employed, keep more people buying really expensive insurance policies (helps out the politicians’ biggest reelection campaign donors - banking and insurance) and we can ensure fewer people can legally buy guns.
I’m 100% in favor of being tough on people who are legitimately drunk driving (most people are terrible enough drivers when sober!) but this is just pandering.
This is one more reason we need self-driving cars. This kind of stupidity needs to end (on both sides - those who abuse alcohol and then rationalize getting behind the wheel and those who are sucking up to big money interests).
