Friends Don't let Friend's Drive Drunk...

What kind of friend allows another friend to get trashed and then drive home drunk? Luckily he made it home; I just pray that I do not hear about a hit and run on the news in the morning. I found him in the garage at 1:30am passed out hanging out of the drivers door. It took three times of banging on the glass window three times before I got his attention. Of course he does not admit that he has had way too much to drink, only a little too much, but "I am alright!" is all I get. Is this a man thing? I mean what the .... but I guess I can not put all the blame on his friend; even though his friend bought all the drinks. But he's an adult, he should be responsible and accountable for his actions. When, and I mean when, I get a night out with the girls, I have a few drinks and that's it because I have to get home safely. If I am not the one driving, I make sure the one who is has a fresh soda all night long. That is what responsible adults do, right? I guess what upsets me even more, is that it happens ALL THE TIME! It is not an every now and then thing, or according to him of course it is! Every few weeks, I argue with him about going out drinking and he comes home drunk and passes out. A few months ago, he actually called me from the side of the road and was thinking he was going to jail for blowing a .083. After the police officer agreed to let them sit there and wait for me and left, they drove home anyways. I mean shear stupidity! Right? Sad thing is I wished that the cop would have arrested him so that he might have gotten the point. Is that wrong of me?
