Very nice, I concur. I really wish we'd actually change the D&D laws for "real" drunk drivers. I don't care if we can bust my mom who had 2 glasses of wine at dinner - she always made it home without hitting schoolbusses when she lived with me.
Oh and huge good point on "changing radio stations." that is actually part of the current statistic on "distracted driving" that is blended with texting. Remember this when you hear statistics that "80 % of drivers under 25 text..." often they're mixing that texting is distracted driving with the 80% number that refers to all possible activities that they argue qualify.
I drive a stick, so I'm always violating the "law" by changing gears. D'oh!
