GREAT IDEA.

Repeated Law-Breakers should have a strong consequence.

I don't think this is a good idea. Other family members that do not have a DUI charge in the household share the same car. It also labels people. Color-coding license plates should then be used for other offenders - such as thefts, assaults, forgery, etc. NOT a GOOD THOUGHT OUT IDEA -
