Most of those laws fail at protecting society, but mandatory fines, jail sentences and drivers license suspensions help deter drinking and driving. The swifter the punishment, the more effective it is at preventing drunk driving.

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.

Why do governments make laws?

Well, making laws is the mere reason such a thing as government exsists. There are many theories as to why such a thing as government exists. The most suspected is that societies organized to benifit the members of those societies. Originally there were tribes that supposedly evolved to governments. The goal is pretty much the same as tribal society, that is to protect people under government jurisdiction.
