Does he have a drinking problem? If he does, there is still no excuse for himself not planning on an alternate way home and ensuring he - and those around him including families - gets home safely. This is just plain irresponsible. This is a disregard for other's lives.
Why do I sound so harsh? My neighbours were wiped out by a drunk driver leaving their 4 kids instantly orphaned. We just had a case of a woman killing an entire family. Notably we just had an incident involving our provincial minister of liquor and gaming.
At the very least he should be considering the detrimental effects if he gets caught. Not sure there but here it involves having your licensed removed. Many jobs require the ability to drive.

I second this. A guy I went to school with and have known for almost 30 years lost his dad to a drunk driver when we were kids. He's been in and out of jail ever since(currently in) and he broke the day his dad was killed. He went from a sweet funny boy to a prepubescent felon over night. It kills me to think of how much happier and better life would be for him if that drunk idiot didn't take his whole world away from him. This is also why I'll never drink and drive, get in a car with anyone who has drank any alcohol and I dead any friends that drive drunk. Hey be as self destructive as you want just don't put other people at risk.
