So instead of going after the group that is responsible for the most fatalities, we go after the group that has the least. So now your social drinker who may have had 3 beers after work will now only have 1 or 2. However your drunky-mcdrunkerson will still continue with his ways.
So sober people cause most of the accidents. If anything, people should have a couple drinks before driving. Get them into that .05 -.08 safe zone.
