In NY the limit is .08. But your right, two pints will put me dangerously close. However, making the limit 0 will only put more photos in the paper.
That's the problem. Nobody knows the new sneaky laws.
It's actually 0.05 for slightly lower fines and penalties. But they still take your license. A buddy of mine hit a checkpoint in NYC with a 0.06 (had 2-3 pints), lost thousands of dollars and his license for 3 months.
