If it's so unacceptable for people to drive at 0.05 make that the law. Hell, you should be pissed at the fact that people at 0.05 aren't getting as hefty of punishments as those at 0.08 as it seems you see them in the same light.

I conceded quite a while ago to the point about not being able to afford due process.
There were several people in this thread making "glass of wine with dinner comments". I was refuting those.
If you weren't one of those people I don't get what we are debating anymore? I think just changing 0.08 to 0.05 would be fine, and I would like more severe penalties over some other arbitrary limit. I don't know what that limit should be, but I think at some point you are far enough beyond the grey areas of BAC's effects on different people that you can safely say any person at BAC of 0.XX is going to obviously know they are drunk with no doubt, and take those people off the road forever.
