Unless you are charged, have charges pending, or perhaps living with someone with a serious criminal record you should get your license...
I had a few too many pops one nigh and the police talked with me too. It was NBD and honestly it was kinda part of growing up in a small town in the 90's.
You move on, finish schooling, get a job etc etc... just life. I think the vast majority of ppl had one too many beers once or twice too. Key thing is that is something that happens a few times when you are young. Then maybe it happens in your house new years eve and once at the cottage every summer... maybe thats just me.
Anyway, good luck and welcome to CGN.
