Two cases of drinking and driving that I know personally. Details are omitted on purpose as I don't want to be misinterpreted as advocating DUI.

First person drank and drove and got caught. Refused to blow breathalyzer and asked for blood test and lawyer. Hands on wheel within in less than 2 month.

Second person got into an accident (serious accident as car was totalled) while drinking and driving. Fled the scene and contacted lawyer. Hands on wheel within a month.

You can't just read one line of law/regulation and expect it to be implemented in black and white. There are a lot of technicalities that lawyers can use as different angles.
