Unfortunately that article is redundant and has been picked apart, examined and essentially disproved. Don't get me wrong the stats are real but they have nothing to do with the new law. Even if they did you could never prove it. And they don't so it doesn't matter.
Given that only 2% of all traffic fatalities are caused by .05-.08 drivers it is pretty much guaranteed there are other factors at play in this stat. It is basically a statistical anomaly.
