You can be like the lady at .16 and be fine or you can be a .05 and can't stand up...
You just poked a bunch of holes in our system right there... I know people (my GF for instance) who are lightweights, two beers and they're hosed. Then there are the popularly called "functioning alcoholics" who go all day at .2 BAC and can get into a backhoe and dig you a perfect hole for your doomsday bunker. Funny how that works, alcohol affects everyone differently, same as weed... But we need somewhere to draw a line. I don't know where that line should be, I'm not a doctor, or a lawyer, or even a politician (thank God!).
