my wife's coworker (she's a prosecutor) did what is called a wet lab where you basically drink and blow into a Breathalizer every hour or so. it took him over 14 beers to reach the .08BAC. he knew far before he reached the legal limit that he should be nowhere near a moving vehicle.
are you saying that you can drink a 12-pack in short order and still be good to drive a vehicle, or control something in 3 dimensions that's moving 320kts?
it's people like you that make responsible drinkers shake their heads in shame.
thats the most asinine comment ive ever heard. it might take 14 beers to reach .8 but not .08. it takes the average size male 2 beers in an hour to reach .08.
rickair you are 100% right, the way the law is written is ridiculous, but thats just in line with all the other ridiculous laws written these days.
