One in every five fatal road traffic accidents in the UK involves a driver who has been drinking alcohol.

So if we ban all of those drinking drivers we effect a twenty percent reduction in road deaths.

Of course, if we ban all those non drinking drivers, the reduction will be eighty percent.

Our government chose the former.
