The argument is that it is a cash cow, but I assume that if it tied up the court system people would be arguing it is a waste of time and money... When all really anybody cares about is it effects their right to drink a few drinks.
I don't own a car and I don't live in Calgary (or Canada for that matter), so this doesn't impact me at all, and yet I care because I think basic civil liberties like the right to due process matter. People like to come down on the litigious nature of the US, but the upside is that something like this would never be allowed to stand.
