You get what I mean, in terms of danger to the public - a person on bail for drink driving is far less likely to cause harm to society than a murderer or rapist etc. With Prison/Police resources stretched to the limit, we need to prioritise incarcerating them in my opinion.

Having said that anyone who drink/drug drives and hurts someone deserves everything they get.

Not really but each to their own.

Oh no I get that, but surely even those individuals don't often do it while on bail!

I have come across quite a few over the past 28 years....one of my colleagues caught a drink driver in the Wakefield district only a couple of weeks ago - a middle aged working guy - and he actually said that he couldn't believe he was being arrested and then prosecuted for "just having a few beers" (I believe he was 3 times over the limit) and that he was disgusted with the police "who should be out catching the REAL criminals "
