How about forbidding, for a time, those involved in alcohol-related crimes from buying alcohol and have it enforced at the seller level? The time interval could coincide with the duration of their probation or be forever for alcohol-related felonies (such as vehicular manslaughter).
That is, each liquor store would have access to a database containing the names of those ineligible to buy alcoholic beverages. Any shop selling booze to a prohibited person would face a sanction and anyone prohibited from buying alcohol would have his probation extended (or other penalty) for attempting to do so.
A simple terminal gizmo connected to the state's computer could be configured to swipe the driver's license and return an answer much like a credit card authorization ("Approved," "Declined," "Retain DL," or whatever).
Wouldn't cost a lot and what it did cost could be paid for by: a) An additional, small, fee on the part of the beverage seller, and b) An additional charge to the probation costs of the offender.
Any similarities of this plan to the NICS scheme for guns is purely coincidental.

Typical drivel from a radical social fascist darwinianist who doesn't understand that driving and gubs are the privileges that need reigning in. A man is his own decanter--unless you are theocratic statist!

"Maxi Pad," it would be "cute" if it weren't typical misogynist drivel. -- The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness. -John Kenneth Galbraith

A whole pants full of pejoratives can't disguise that fact that you have a hardon for more oppressive governance--as long as it's your crowd--the mustache and bellamy salute dooshbags.

So, if you walked on Main Street in Anytown USA, dropped trou and took a dump - and someone suggested it was an offensive and idiot thing to do, would you yelp "Looks like I hit a nerve?" -- The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness. -John Kenneth Galbraith

I sure wouldn't! I'd flip them off and yell, "can't you see I'm extruding here!" When you phrase excretion in the language of mechanics--it becomes acceptable, IMHO.
