Even just a single drop of alcohol might cause a microscopic level of impairment. It might only last for 2 minutes though.
Let's be realistic here though. We are talking about enough alcohol to impair a persons driving. 99.9% of the population will be 100% sober if they consume a drop of alcohol.
For all intents and purposes there is absolutely no driving impairment for most people if they have one or two drinks.

You can argue this until you're blue in the face (and I don't doubt you will), but the bottom line is that the original poster knew he had a GDL, and he drove after drinking anyways. It doesn't matter what his level of impairment was. He broke the rules that he knew about, period.
