Here in MD, the well-intentioned prohibitionists have managed to get our DUI threshold down to .08 (BAC). As if that weren't bad enough, there is still no public recognition that BAC has next to nothing to do with intoxication/level of impairment. BAC will continue to rise for hours as alcohol is metabolized while actual impairment begins to drop very soon after you stop drinking.

Lest I be criticized, IMHO, people who drink too much, get behind the wheel, and kill people, should be treated like the murderers they are, but we also need common sense enforcement.
