Revoking the license of everyone who drives while impaired seems unworkable given its prevalence and the necessity of driving in the States:
1. Since so many people do it and will continue to do it, you essentially create a lottery situation; just as now, very few are caught, whereas the vast majority will evade punishment, and they know it, therefore the problem persists.
2. People who have their licenses revoked still have to get places, therefore they continue to drive and accept the fact of additional penalties.
In summary, creating harsh penalties for everyday behavior creates new problems while solving no existing ones.
