We have a keychain sized Breathalyzer we bring with us if we go out anywhere. While obviously not perfectly accurate, it can give at least a good baseline whether you're over or under. So if we're getting close to wanting to go home and I'm driving and I blow around 0.08, I stop drinking. I order some water, maybe another appetizer or something, and hang out with my partner a half hour to an hour longer before heading home.
People think every day drinkers are just binge drinkers unable to handle their alcohol. It's an addiction, not a compulsion.
