So, they're just plain stupid before they go out drinking, eh? I mean, unless you spend your life in an alcohol induced fog, you must realized that getting drunk is going to impair your judgment and ability to drive several tons of metal. Personally, I'm all for drunk driving... as long as the drunk kills themself and doesn't hurt anyone else while they're doing it.
Well, A. the fact that drinking impairs your inhibitions from the outset definetly leads to the risk of one drink become two or three or more and B. if a driver is weaving across the road, the odds are fairly good that the object they'll end up finding first with the hood of their vehicle will be another vehicle.
Ultimately it's better for everyone involved if someone whose judgement is impaired isn't able to start the car in the first place.

Small problem there: Boston South is a commuter and long distance rail terminal primarily, so AFAIK it wouldn't use turnstyles anywhere.
As a matter of fact MS thought of this (for a time anyway)...some of the early Longhorn alphas had a clock on the welcome screen.
