I'm going to play devil's advocate on this one. Our court systems are filled to overflowing with drunk driving cases that often get off on technicalities as has been stated. I read somewhere that close to 40% of the cases in court are drunk driving related. You are all for cutting gov't costs, and I know you are not in favor of drunks being behind a wheel. Give the cops breathalyzers and road side blood sample kits, and make the blood sample be mandatory if the person blows over .05. I will gladly give blood if I blow over .05.
