As someone who got caught up in the DUI racket twice and other times blew a .08, I'd rather have my car refuse to start until I'm under their BS safety number then pop a DUI because my tail light and headlight were out as with what happened to me. Never pulled over for my driving always some cockamamie that did me in and their .08 is complete bs.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80550127 Well I'm glad that it will keep you off the road, but it's a bit of a nuisance for those of us who just don't drive if they've been drinking. But I do agree that BAC is very subjective. Some people are perfectly fine at .08, and others are stupid passout drunk at .04. It should be based on capability to operate the machine. Bullshit. .04 is 1 beer. I don't know anyone who is drunk on 1 beer, much less 2. I used one of those drink counter apps once that estimates your BAC based on the alcohol content and frequency just to see where I was with it out of curiosity. I didn't even feel a buzz until the thing said .12 and didn't start to feel drunk until it said .16. So, that would be 4 beers in an hour. I'd say that's quite a bit if you're going out for a night of drinking at the bar. I don't know anyone who goes out and drinks like this. I would say, if you're drinking 4 beers an hour the problem isn't your driving its that you're a total drunk. Frankly, a lot of these people who get sloshed at the bar aren't sloshed because they drank at the bar... they drink all day long and then go to the bar and drink some more and then drive home and drink some more. The police, on the other hand, will sit a couple blocks down from a bar and then look for excuses to pop moderate drinkers who aren't drunk with a DUI while claiming they're "saving the world." I'm talking about small girls. Some of them get sloshed on nothing at all.
