He just means that you're generally okay to have 2 or 3 beers and drive. Although, I think generally cops will give you a 24 hour suspension if you blow between .05 and .07, and then a DUI if you blow over .08.

For example, one time we were jamming at my buddies house, and a neighbor called the cops. So the cops came to the door and told us to shut 'er down. As I left the house I saw that he was still parked out front, and I had been drinking, so for some reason (I guess I just wanted to make sure that he wasn't going to pull me over as soon as I got in my car, because he probably saw all the beer cans when he was at the door) I went up to him and asked his opinion on whether I was okay to drive home. I told him I had 4 beers over the course of 3 or 4 hours. He said I'd be fine, and said "Put it this way, I'd drive home after that".
