Why not? Not a single person drove drunk that day

At least not the car that has a DUI device installed. But considering the car is the primary method to get around in the States, some of the people in that story probably drove a car before and after

Is "waiting a few hours until you're better" not a thing in the US?

It seems to me that there's some weird propaganda going on in this thread. I've only ever known one person who has driven while drunk and the only reason I know that is that he confessed it out of deep shame.

I guess it's possible that everyone I know is out joyriding every time they drink and just not telling me, but assuming that's not true, I - being from and in the US - never really experienced a culture remotely supportive of drunk driving.
