Default Getting through to the Youth

So after driving four hours today get home to her two of my mates were killed in a crash. These were people who I would have thought to be responsible etc. and not drink drive. NZ has a horrible problem with youths drink driving and driving excessively powerful cars (e.g guy in 6th form has 550+HP SR20DET Silvia).

What can be done to fix this issue after having many talks at school etc and hearing other peoples horror stories it still doesn't get through to people so can anything actually be done. I remember along time ago there was a concept of a car that had a Breathalyser and wouldn't start if it was over a limit. But thats weird. My question is are these youths (and older people) just going to keep doing this and creating grief for loved ones and friends around them as they don't think at the time.
