A drink, a driver...3 years in the Clink

I just learned on TV this afternoon that the Japanese are offering an all-inclusive incentive package to prevent DUIs. If you are IN THE CAR and the driver is drunk you...YOU...can face 3 years in prison and a 500,000 yen fine. That's 5,000 USD. If the driver is drunk and there are three passengers in the car...ALL THREE passengers face 3 years in prison and a 500,000 yen fine. It doesn't matter if you've been drinking or not. It only matters if the driver has. Three sober passengers...one drunk driver? Four people going to prison and $20,000 for the government.

Now, I'm thinking if this little plan was implemented in the US that might take care of a lot of things. I don't know...
