Though the jury’s still out on the most effective solution, one thing is clear: harsher prison sentences for drunk drivers don’t translate to fewer DUI offenders on the road.

people arguing against this are honestly fucking insane or just straight up astroturfing

It's not surveillance, it's not nanny state holy shit, it's preventing people from KILLING OTHERS

    out of curiosity... why do you think cars are so expensive? are you planning on getting rid of all the older cars? Heres a plan we could only release expensive cars with lots of features and throw away all the old cars, so people are forced to buy the new ones! We could call it regulatory capture in capitalism!
