my biggest nightmare is killing someone while driving drunk

My biggest fear is killing someone period, especially with my car. A car is a death tool and I honestly don't know how we stay alive while cruising along going about 80 on 66 with people passing me on both sides.
I believe that people are allowed mistakes and screw ups, but the way Virginia deals with alcohol is crazy. When I was 20 I got possession of alcohol, my first offense ever. This has nothing to do with DUI or anything of the sort, simply possession. They wanted to put me in jail for a month all but 10 days got suspended, and not even give me a restricted license so I could go to work and school. Where I live that means I CANT work or get to school. all but 10 days, got suspended. Obviously I appealed and got a better ruling. During this time I did a lot of research on these type of things, and I did a report on how MADD inflates their statistics for my VASAP class. I'm not trying to say I agree with drunk driving, but all those "drunk driving" numbers you see means if a guy has a 6 pack in the trunk, he's totally sober, and someone runs into him who is also totally sober, MADD considers that alcohol related.
