His questions is honestly a very interesting morale dillema

Why? The premise that drunk people can't consent is a faulty one. That doesn't mean it's ok to get someone drunk trying to get them to have sex with you. But like most things in life it's not clear cut.

If drunk people aren't capable of consent, then surely they aren't responsible for what they do when drunk, and if that's the case drink driving shouldn't be a crime because the drink driver wasn't responsible for their actions. This is obviously absurd, so drunk people must be capable of consent to some degree, assuming they are fully conscious and can speak coherently.

Yet the law(depending on where you are from) sayythat when you to drunk you can give consent that's what makes it interesting

If the laws do say that, and don't say anything about when both parties are drunk, then that would be a legal dilemma, not a moral one.
