They have made alot stricter laws now on the people who drink and drive. It is not solving the problem tho. What they should do is ban alcohol. It is no different then drugs. Alcohol is a drug and an addiction. They should ban it completely. Then you will have less or no drunk drivers. I am dead set against drugs and alcohol.
Few problems are ever solved. But the war on DUI has done a lot of good. 40 years ago america had 55,000 highway deaths . Now it's 35,000 even with a lot more cars and people. Yes cars are safer but i think going after drunks has helped a lot.
There's still more to be done, though. I don't favor putting DUIs if prison since that would cost a fortune. But let's make DUI a felony in all cases. That's a big penalty there due to loss of many rights and job opportunities and would scare lots of people into driving sober.
Banning booze is out of the question right now.
