I think you have that backwards. 21 km over is less than 21 miles.

I was talking about the fines. A $600 fine for going 21 km over is a bit much, but if you're going 21 miles over that's about what I'd expect it to be.

But again, taking into account how many people do and make it home safe, very rarely by comparison.

And 99.99% of the time when you drive you could go without a seatbelt and not suffer any harm. That still doesn't mean not wearing a seatbelt is a good idea (as evinced by the thousands of people who die each year in survivable crashes because they weren't buckled in).

Seriously, this isn't hard. Don't drink and drive. Call a cab, call an uber, call a friend, have a designated driver, arrange to stay over, whatever. If you don't have a way to get home with a sober driver, then don't drink to excess.

There are zero situations I can think of where you are required to get drunk and are then forced to drive somewhere. One (or more frequently both) are always voluntary actions.
