That was my question as well intially. But then I thought about it this way; how do they know you're drunk now?
Answer: checkstops, mostly.
People going home drunk in one of these cars will (I would think, anyway) be just as prone to getting nabbed at a checkstop as any other motorist. Some might say that if the car itself is doing the driving then wouldn't that make you just another passenger?
Perhaps existing laws will be amended to say that at least one person in these cars has to be sober enough to take over the wheel should the need arise, and if they aren't they run the risk of a DUI.
I think I'd still rather have a bunch of drunks getting driven home by their cars than by driving themselves like they so often do.
