Driving under the influence is a ban able offence (reckless endangerment) in most countries.
So is a proper driver’s ed before giving even a learner’s permit. US loves giving a multi ton killing machine to untrained people with impulse control. And teenagers
I agree with you, but the difference is that, in the US, people NEED to be able to drive to function in society. That’s why the bar has to be so low to get a license.
So… Just tell them that it’s illegal for them to drive? Kind of like how we tell them that it’s illegal to drink and drive but they did that anyway? The point of the lock is that it’s for people who are going to ignore the law anyway. Not having a license does not stop somebody from operating a motor vehicle.
You make a good point. I still don’t have an ounce of patience for alcoholics who drive, but I do agree that it creates a mental trap of “you have a perfectly good car right here if you just stop drinking for 24 hours”
Fuck the lock, ban them from driving. Inexcusable.

I’m sure the lives lost were worth it so that alcoholics and irresponsible people can keep functioning in society. /s
It isn’t. Public transit is great. When will it be discovered in America? Who knows.
