In Arizona you get a one year mandatory inner lock on your car, lots of fines, and 10 days in jail.. first time.
Poeple make mistakes, every day, in every way.. Why is this different? Because it's a choice? Well, most mistakes are.
The reality is, people ARE forcing people to do this - without every knowing it. That is "exactly" how advertising works. If they want to make it really fair, then ZERO advertising for alcohol on tv, radio, billboards, anything.. It has been proven that advertisements influence us in unknown - upper level - psychological reason.
It's also been proven the more you push people, and say no this is bad, the more they will do it. It's far better to create a system that works with the people than against them.
