people need to relax, this isn't supposed to stop 100% of drunk drivers but to at least stop SOME drunks.
Let's put it this way though, if you're smart enough to know you need to put glasses on, have a couple of mints, relax a bit and then drive, you're probably not that drunk in the first place!

The only reason Nissan is doing this is because of monetary gain, or more precise to stop losses. Don't be naive and think a for profit company is putting people before profits. Actuaries like myself know insurance rates are higher on cars that are used for drunk driving. Nissan knows their cars are used or caught more than other manufacturers. They are trying to find ways to keep from losing sales of people looking at higher insurance rates than the competition. If you think Nissan is out to save the world one drunk at a time then you are foolish. That's not to say this isn't a good start for the technology. I am just pointing out the motivation behind this technology isn't altruistic.

It's to stop serious drunks, simple as that!
