It's not hard to do. Designated driver. Cabs. Sleep over. Hell, I bet if you called the cops and told them you didn't have a way home, if they
weren't busy, they'd drive you themselves.
Why not use the busses that we've been dragging the kids to the wrong schools with (due to "affirmative action" laws) & drive the drunks home?

As far as necessary. The term "adequate force" comes to mind. That fails, call the cops. The life you save may be the one you love.
I don't think calling the cops would've done much good...She could very easily drive off while he's on the phone to call them. By the time the cops
track her down to stop her, it's usually too late.
In this particular case, I think the man would have been justified to use the "8-10-12 Attitude Adjustment Method."
Definition? "It'll take 8 medics 10 hours to remove my size 12 shoe from your @$$."

Sure, she was drunk, but did this guy think that he could slow down a car by holding on to the door and dragging his feet?
Evidently, it would probably take a blood test (pass out the blotters) to determine if he was already drunk enough to have "impaired judgement," but
I think it's a reasonable explanation why he did that.
