Agreed - but driving while drunk or high is not a personal choice but a public endangerment. Whether a person is functional and another is not is not a problem of law or enforcement - pick a number and that's the law.

Driving while drunk or stoned is different than being drunk or stoned at home or other private location. I put drugs in the same category as guns. The laws should be harsh for usage that endangers others, but the fact that some use drugs or guns unlawfully should not be an excuse to infringe on the freedom/liberty of others who do not use drugs or guns in a manner that doesn't affect other law abiding citizens.
