disdainfullyyours asked: So your drink driving argument is that it's the crashing that's the crime, and that drinking isnt (or shouldnt be) something deemed as wrong. so what about the argument that drinking will significantly raise your chances of crashing your car. like very very significantly (i.e. when a guy is "stag-weekend drunk")
surely because people are so much more likely to crash when drunk driving, it's worth limiting the amount you can drink before driving?
Being tired will very very significantly raise your chances of crashing your car, hence driving while tired endangers people on the road and sidewalk.
Talking on a cell phone will very very significantly raise your chances of crashing your car, hence driving while talking on a cell phone endangers people on the road and sidewalk.
Having a screaming kid in the back distracting you will very very significantly raise your chances of crashing your car, hence driving with possibly-screaming kids in the car endangers people on the road and sidewalk.
Illegalize them?
