And this is how we get to the probable cause. They must need a probable cause - erratic driving, warning telephone call, anything to suggest that a driver could be under influence. Then, it's a justified check of a suspect due to his/her actions clearly endangering public safety.

That's rather a broad discussion. I firmly believe in the "live and let live" principle of societal governance. You are visibly on the "government knows better" side of things.
