Why can't we make a car that requires a sober or functioning driver? It could measure coordination and reflex speed before starting. It might help getting some of the 90 year olds off the road as well as the drunks.

HB suggested I read your post on the topic. With personal liberty comes personal responsibility. We already have laws on the books about responsibility for your own actions. Even if you are intoxicated, you still go to jail for hurting someone. Intoxication is no excuse. Your choice was made when you turned the key. Anyone can have some issue arrive in their lives. A broken bone .. many tings that could involve pain, resulting in them having some pain issue that results in them having prescribed pain medication. The medical situation should not result in them being a prisoner in their own home. Life has tossed this person a hard ball already. There are no BAC style levels for every substance that exists that people can become impaired with. Figuring out these levels is something that took decades to figure out for alcohol. Yet everyone is already responsible for what they do. For the results of their actions. What about people that sleep drive on Ambian? Is a person responsible for their actions while asleep? The most dangerous drugs for everyone around the "patient" are those the FDA says are relatively safe.
