    I don’t think the current level of drunk driving is large enough to violate everyone’s privacy to catch the very few drivers who drank too much. I’m much more worried about road rage drivers than drunk drivers. Road ragers are actively trying to hurt or kill people.

      I worry a lot more about road rage and distracted drivers than drunks. Last week in the nearby large-ish city a woman was run off the side of a bridge and her car fell 60ft and landed on it’s roof in the river bed. She will be OK, but still yikes.

      Road rage is bigger than just drivers. Most violent crime is committed by young men. Ideally, these people would have better access to jobs and free mental health care.

      Yes, some counselling would help. Just talking to someone who isn’t related to you or in a relationship with you can be enlightening.

      No, you’re supposed to submit to a finger up the bum because some child thinks this will actually work as intended.
