Stupid law. I am against driver buy I suspect the responsible individual who thinks he might be borderline .08, assuming all normal factors for weight, amount per hour, etc. Is a safer driver because he does not want to get stopped. This will hurt restaurants.

Might as well just make it 0.00. That’s what those greedy ba$stards want anyway. It’s always about the Benjamin’s with the court systems. They figure this will double their pocket ‘lining’ money....

Really????? Stupid law???? Really???? HAVE YOU, YOU PERSONALLY EVER LOST ANYONE TO A DRUNK DRIVER??? Have you ever seen a wreck caused by a drunk driver, who actually walks away from the accident, while the family of five, mamma, daddy and three little kids are smeared around the vehicle and street???? If you haven’t, pray you never do. The blood and gore can look like a war zone. I have witnessed both. It ain’t pretty. And I believe there sould be ZERO levels of booze in your blood. You can have the Designated Driver, a non-drinker, etc. You DO NOT have to drive. Stupid law my butt.

>>This will hurt restaurants.<<

What needs to happen is pass a law banning alcohol sales in public establishments for consumption. Period.

One must purchase the alcohol and transport it unopened till the arrive at their home and it must be consumed at home.

Bet’cha after a period of time, lawmakers would be looking to raise tax revenue in other areas.

I'm not in support of what I wrote, but it really pisses me off that law makers LOVE the tax revenue generated by sales of alcohol/dining. Besides, the horrific accidents in large part are not from folks enjoying a couple of drinks with a burger. It's the dumb @$$3$ drinking twice the legal limit that cannot even see to drive.

They've started this nonsense down here in Texas. “Buzzed Driving is Drunk Driving” the signs say. Freakin nanny state.

By your logic, lowering it to .05 will make many more drive safer!

There is no data to prove that. Even at .08 there are data that show drivers are impaired. No reason to drink and drive. Take a taxi or have a designated driver

When you take the limit below .08 like to .05 then the margin of error and false trips becomes a factor.
