What they get depends on how many prior offences they have committed, and how far over the legal limit you are. I think a first offence carries a fine and license suspension, or up to 1 year in prison if you are way over. After that, more likely to get prison, but certainly bigger fine. Do it again, you're going down.

I think name and shame is good, or maybe even put a chain round their neck and tie them up in a city centre with a sign saying what they did - 'I took your lives in to my irresponsible hands - please feel free to throw stones'.

Yeah, I don't like drunk drivers much
