In Germany if you are caught DUI, you lose your license instantly for minimum 6 months, and have to pay massive fines (several thousand Euros). If caught again, you have to undergo a psych evaluation, pay HUGE fines (15,000+ euro) , go to prison, lose your license for a minimum of 2 years...after that strike three and you're doomed to ever drive again in most cases + prison.
