> Alcohol is also a factor on the pedestrian side

Absolutely true, but what are you proposing? I’d propose banning most vehicles from city centers where people congregate.

Vehicle size and weight will always be a relevant factor as long as people and vehicles exist in the same spaces.

You could propose serving limits, which would help limit drunk driving, reduce drunk pedestrian deaths, and potentially reduce alcohol related health issues. Or enforce drunk in public laws.

Just as vehicle size and weight will always be a factor, so too will alcohol, drugs, phones, etc.
