Of course having a couple drinks and driving is ok but then you know you are impaired and still do it.

This is true but anyone who has a history of medical episodes, should not be behind the wheel. Example: someone who has untreated, or under-treated diabetes who has gone into diabetic shock more than twice in the last year.
Someone who has suffered clusters of mini-strokes over the past few years.
Someone who has had untreated or undertreated epileptic seizures, even the petit mal ones, for years.
Anyone who knows that they DO have these problems, and who are aware that they can't count on NOT having them when they get behind the wheel, should not get behind the wheel.
