Case in point vis DWI/DUI catch and release. No real consequences. Still on the road.

The big catch line here is he hasn't hurt anyone; you may conclude that he will eventually, but he has not. Just like a speeder as long as no one has been hurt you get a fine, you hurt someone whole different ballgame.

Pssst: the comma is not required after “And”. My statement, on the other hand, is correctly punctuated as it stands.

Unless you are deliberately bringing attention to the pause suggested in the sentence. Then it would be required...

There's 2 grammatical errors on your part, you illiterate windbag...now go watch some vintage "Schoolhouse Rock" clips on YT & learn how to speak English, Mother******!!!

The point being, no matter how many are caught driving while DWI/DUI, it's a revolving door, for THOSE that are caught. Without very significant and substantial consequences, driving drunk or driving under the influence numbers will never ever go down. Which is why the focus should be on incarcerating those that DWI/DUI that injure or kill someone, or destroy someone's property, for very long periods of time.

And since, as its been said, that implied consent is given to have an alcohol test, breath analyzer, blood draw or whatever, anyone getting into an accident, with police called to the scene, regardless of who was at fault, all parties should be field tested for sobriety as part of the accident report. This alone might, might, slow this problem down.

If no one's been hurt and no accident happened then what is the problem?

There is no problem. Until someone drinking and driving causes an accident.

There is no problem. Until someone drinking and driving causes an accident.

And there is no murder until someone pulls the trigger.

Exactly. And there is no murder until someone uses a knife, or a hammer, or a bat, or a rope, or rat poison, or their hands, etc.. It all comes down to personal responsibility.
