If you don't want to be subject to sobriety checks take the bus. If you are stopped you still have protection from illegal search.

you pay taxes to drive on the road. That's not a privilege, its getting what you pay for.

I'm not in favor of dui checkpoints, but I'm not much in favor of most dui laws. I dont drink and drive, even if I've had one in the last couple hours. But I could without much impairment because I'm not a 50 lb teenager. Legally, though, that one beer could be too much even if all I'm doing is just driving between the lines and not running anyone over.
