As far as I'm concerned, driving after drinking and texting while driving are both highly dangerous. I don't care much what they do to those who practise those hazardous activities.
Take away the phone, fine.
Impound the car for driving under the influence, fine.
Don't do those things. It's pretty simple. When we save some lives, it's worth it for me.
The argument that someone may not be able to call 911 is lame, in my opinion. what if a drunk driver had his license taken away and was unable to drive to work, or the hospital in an emergency situation? I'm no lawyer but I doubt there would be a valid legal argument.
