    IIRC, it used to be 0.10, but was lowered to 0.08 because some studies (and maybe some advocacy groups) found out that there was significant impairment at 0.08 BAC.

    The number really shouldn’t be round. It should be the number where 99.999% of people are not too impaired to drive a car.

        Isn’t 0.08 around 3 beers for the average person?

        While I wouldn’t drive at that level that is definitely not “pretty fucking drunk”
