Lumping all people who enjoy a drinking responsibly with drunk drivers isn't fair. People have drinks at sports events, because they work hard, for most of their lives, and drinking is relaxing and fun.
Anyone who drives drunk is someone who doesn't care about the rules or other people's safety. I don't see how having more restrictions directed at law abiding citizens who enjoy alcohol is going to stop the drunk drivers.
