For reference, each of those readings was after 1.5 ounces of Vodka, spaced at 15 minute intervals.

Here is a person who had 10.5 ounces of Vodka in 1.5 hours and didn't hit 0.05. And you want to protect this persons right to drive a car?

I've used a breathalyzer on several occasions. The least beer I have ever drank and been able to hit 0.05 with was just over 1.5L in 40 minutes, right after intense exercise and no food. The spike over 0.05 lasted about 10 minutes and I was back below. Other times it has taken about 5 pints to hit that level, and no way would I drive.
No, I want to protect this person's rights, period.
