It's my car, I should be allowed to choose to drive it drunk.

drive it drunk on gvt owned roads? where you have a license to operate it if you abide by specific rules? and you lose the license if any of them are broken?

that’s a very different comparison to something like going to a private business

what about driving drunk on your own land away from anyone

Governments regulate comings and goings of people to and from private businesses all the time. We don't allow people under 21 to go to bars or people under 18 to go to strip clubs, for example.

If you wanna walk around on your own land away from anyone without getting vaccinated and/or while having covid? Have at it.
