Apart from her job your point is??

Let me guess, she only got a three year ban for putting the lives of
others seriously at risk? Who is to say she won't do it again after
three years, especially if she happens to be an alcoholic.

BTW, why aren't alcoholics permanently banned from driving? Is it
because it might adversely affect pub revenues, particularly those
with car parks?

No.

It's because we live in a free country.

Clearly, that doesn't suit everyone.
