It punishes everyone equally for drinking a sufficient amount of alcohol to produce a BAC of .08 and then getting behind the wheel.

Which is actually pretty stupid. 0.05 in a youngster is a heck of lot more deadly than 0.1 in 40-year-old is.

Actually there is a zero tolerance in California for teenagers. Anything higher than .01 in anyone under 21 will buy you a night in the slammer and a DUI on your record.

Happy now?
