Around 10,000 people per year, and growing, are killed by drunk drivers. About every 53 minutes someone dies and every 90 seconds someone is injured by a drunk driver.

How does making the drunk driving laws stricter affect a person's right of freedom or free choice?

The Constitution never mentions a right of free choice. This is implied but not explicitly stated. The Constitution gives us the right to be secure in our homes and the right to freedom of speech (which today includes freedom of expression). There is no right to drink alcohol in the Constitution. Laws against drunk driving serve to protect the freedoms of the people who would likely be injured or killed by drunk drivers. Prior to strict drunk driving laws, nearly 60,000 Americans died on the roads every year, and 30 - 35,000 of them were related to drunk driving. Drunk driving laws protect the rights of the innocent victims. Constitutionally protected freedoms do not include the freedom to endanger others.
