Your point is well-argued and I mostly agree. But this: > Should drinking and driving be legal as long as you don't hurt anyone? to some extent is the case in parts of Europe. In some countries 1-2 beers (or equivalent) are allowed and police cannot proactively control it. Yet if you get into an accident it can be an aggravating condition. I don't mention the concrete countries and laws to avoid people starting to nitpick and dissect minor details.
