It is a puzzle.
Who said anything about disregarding anything? My response was to your claim that losing your license was house arrest. This seems like an OK idea, but not actually that great. It’s a lot of additional manpower to give the punishment, and drunk driving has only dropped by 10%. Hardly a “simple fix”, at best an interesting idea to work into the existing system. Recidivist drunk drivers though, just like any other form of recidivist bad driver, should have their licenses suspended or revoked.
