“You don’t have a ‘right’ to drive. Sorry, your just wrong about this one. The others I tend to agree with. But driving is not a ‘right’ under any interpretation of the Constitution.”

I think he was talking about unreasonable searches, you know amendment four, not the ‘right’ to drive.

Given the stats related to the percentage of drivers drunk at very specific times (after 11PM any day of the week) its not ‘unreasonable’.

And I think the courts have ruled along this line repeatedly when its been challenged.

Disclaimer; One of my childhood friends, who was to be in my wedding party as an usher was killed by a drunk driver.

While sitting on his COUCH in his LIVING ROOM.

Hence, I’m a bit hardcore about drunk driving. Its my personal belief the third time your caught driving drunk, the state should surgically remove your eyesight to protect the rest of us.

Yes, I know its Draconian. Then again, I held my friends six month old daughter while we buried him...
