Well that’s a drunk who got drunk in a bar. What about the guy who gets drunk at a party at home at work etc. and someone drunk isn’t the one most likely to need particular medical attention.

What about a heart attack, stroke, syncope, seizure, suicide, psychosis. All not necessarily time of day related.

I don’t think it is reasonable to modify EMS protocol for the consideration that the driver is a drunk. And to only apply the protocol late at night.

Why not modify the protocol according to the time of day. Not the number of vehicles? Maybe but this is beginning to seem ridiculous already. You need a reasonable general protocol not a 500 page volume which modifies the approach depending on the various combinations of numerous factors A responder has to have some seichel and experience And training in addition to a generalized protocol to follow
