But thats who it will effect. Government bureaucrats have NO common sense. They will apply any law on the books so that the people who get screwed the most will be minor offenders. The real criminals always anticipate getting caught, so for instance, in this case, the real drunks will all be driving $200 junkers. It will be the ordinary social drinker who drives a nice car that will pay the price for your moral indignation.
Be careful what you ask the government to do, because the only thing you can count on the government to do well, is to screw up everything they do. The victim of your moral outrage could be you.
People need to remember that all routine jobs in the government are performed by people of the caliber that work in your local DMV. After 15 years doing that they get promoted to supervisor.
