Of course there's legitimate cases where the cops should be called. But sometmes people just feel wronged and want to get you in trouble, instead of calling because they're actually concerned about their's and other's safety.

From personal experience a couple years ago, I was looking for a certain street and had swerved a little bit when I thought I had to turn, but realized it was the wrong road. It was like 1am and there wasn't much traffic. All of a sudden at the next light, some older guy and his wife pull up and roll down their window.

Buddy's smirking in a self-righteous way and says, "just so you know, we've notified the cops. (To his wife) 'Does it smell like liqour in there?'" "Kind of" (as they're straining to look into my car for liqour)

I just laughed and drove off. I doubt they actually called the cops, but still, some people just have to mind their own business.
Nothing wrong with reporting a suspected drunk driver. Stopping to confront the person is a mistake though.
