minus-squaredan1101@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8arrow-down7·2 months ago30 years ago it was more of a “no harm, no foul” attitude. People would regularly drive around while actively drinking and mostly were not bothered. Then organizations like Mothers Against Drunk Driving did a lot of lobbying and got politicians to make more laws and police to actively enforce them.
