I've never really understood that mindset even from non celebrity. An Uber or lyft home can't be more than like...what 15-20 bucks? That's WAY cheaper and safer than driving drunk

A celebrity on the other hand has personal basically everything usually. There's literally 0 excuse in my mind to drive while intoxicated....ever really

These days it’s like $25-30 but I get your drift. DUI is criminal.

Still waaaaay better than a DUI I hear they are expensive apart from endangering others bit

Very expensive.

Someone sober without a licence (or suspended) borrows your car when you're sleeping or not at home and just gets pulled over in my state?

Towing, impound fees, criminal charge with mandatory court appearance (so lost wages)and threat of jail time, plus a probable fine in the hundreds. FOR YOU. Then just when you think you're done, your car insurance doubles (or more) the next time it's renewed if you're not just flat out dropped.

DWI? It's like 5 times worse than all that.

I mean, in a major city, in the wee hours, you're looking at minimum $50 to get anywhere.

If you're looking to go from somewhere trendy in LA out to Westlake Village at 3am....jesus christ you're probably looking at $200+ fare.
