so the law is suggesting that if you blow at .05 you can have your car impounded but the legal limit is still .08?

that seems wack, i agree.

however, who cares about whether its confusing about having a drink at dinner or not. dont drink at dinner, is your pizza going to be ruined because you had water instead of beer?

if you dont like these laws, look at your buddies, brothers, dads and coworkers and say "hey thanks for abusing the right to have a drink at dinner, now no one can".

drinking and driving is still an epidemic and while i agree that police state legislation is scary, lawmakers are clearly at their wits end about how to get rid of this ridiculas problem.
