I witnessed plently of drunk-driving accidents when I lived in FL. At 6AM one morning, on his way to work, a jockey crashed his Ranger through our fence, taking out 25-30ft of it, then went airborne and crashed throguh the neighbor's fence.

When I got out there, he was pulling a fencepost out from his windshield. He was drunk and also taking painkillers. If the post had gone through the windshield only a foot to the left, he wouldn't have needed the painkillers any more.

The police who arrived on the scene said that, with all the fencing in the area (horse country), they saw similar accidents weekly.
