Doug,
DUI deaths has steadily declined (almost 40% since 1982). Party / casual
drinkers are more likely to use a designated driver.

It appears that a big part of the problem are alcoholics. 1/3 of all DUI's
are the repeat offenders. If they are locked up, they will not repeat the
offense.



Precisely! The question is whether we lock up offenders to
punish them, to cure their problem or to protect society. I
adhere to the latter view.
