One of the reasons to implement a .05 law is so that you can actually convict people who are over .08. It takes about an hour from road side blow to your second blow on the machine they use in court. So in that time period you sober up by about .02. Which means to have a realistic shot of conviction you need a person to be around .12 when they first are pulled over.
So I would be interested in seeing a distribution of accidents but you would really need to be careful in how you looked at the numbers and how they were collected.
