I don't think thats an excuse or an acceptable motivation. We've seen enough destruction caused by drunk driving and we've spent millions on public education on drunk driving.
So just wanting to get home after pounding an a few isn't a defense and isn't an excuse.
They might only be intending to get home, but everyone knows that getting into a vehicle that weighs thousands of pounds after drinking is putting your life, other peoples lives and property at risk.
This to me should be a deadly sin crime for lack of a better word.
