How is it Constitutional to criminalize a drunk driver whose judgment was impaired?

Actually, its exceptionally rare for a person to be excused from a contract for drunkeness, so your analogy is somewhat incorrect. The constitution gives states the absolute right to regulate alcohol. Drunkeness itself is wrong, therefore, a person who commits such a wrong, cannot be excused from other wrongs they commit as a result.
