The point is though that being "slower & more careful" has nothing to do with your impairment.It's you trying to overcome your impairment but they are two completely different things. Alcohol slows reaction times, causes loss of focus, affects eyesight, creates a greater sense of well being even when there is danger... or in some cases creates a sad or angry reaction.When the potential action you're talking about is physically harming or killing someone and there's a absolute 100% documented medically & scientifically provable link that drinking hurts not helps anyone's driving abilities to some extent... then I don't think society has to wait until the wreck. The best thing for everyone is to have a reasonable and not over zealous minimum standard for legal driving and enforce that equally. As I've said I'm in favor of the old (.1) minimum standard. A person can drink 3 beers an hour and pass at that rate... that seems fair.
