NY just passed a new law to protect kids. Now it is a felon, to drive
DWI/DUI with children 15 years of age or less on board.

That ought to help save lives!

Why do you s'pose they didn't just make it a felony to drive with any
passenger in the car?

Just sayin'...

Not that you asked, but my opinion is that anybody driving DUI with a
passenger should be prosecuted as a felon.

I realize that many share that view, and it may be a consensus view. I
don't. IMHO, persons who injure another out of their own
irresponsible actions should be subject to equitable and severe
penalties meted out by the justice system. I think that legislated
behavioral controls are Orwellian and rob the individual of his or her
personal autonomy.

I tend to agree, but I think the distinction is that a child can't legally
make a decision to avoid getting in the car, where an adult can.

This is what happened to Britain. That is the piling on of laws and
restrictions to the point that their charter or Constitution is worthless.
We have been witness to the change from about 1950 to now.
It seemed less apparent here but we are spiraling the same way.

Ummm... laws are not a form of behavioral control?
