So apparently this was discussed in the legislature yesterday and get this..

For a first offense the penalty would be a 3 day license suspension, a 3 day impounding of your vehicle, and you have to pay for your reinstatement. They also want to suspend the license of anyone charged with .08+ until the trial is complete.

All for doing nothing illegal. This is, in a nutshell, guilty until proven innocent.

Its an absurd line of thinking and a complete travesty and abuse of our liberties if it ever comes to pass.
