Yeah, the thing that got me was the 5 times over. Either they have the toughest DWI laws in the world, like a .02, he was obliterated, approaching .40, or that was a mistake in the paper.

What does it take to reach .05? Half a beer?

well, let's be honest...who didn't think that alcohol probably was a contributing factor?

I certainly assumed it.


Yep, accidents after midnight? Alcohol.

I think it's about a whole beer to get .05. If they're going to have it that low you might as well outlaw it. WHen I first heard 5 times the limit, I thought he was near .4 which is close to comatose. Driving like a 22 year old male probably factored heavily into it as well.

So sad.

It is so sad. And that was kind of my point. Not that it was good, but saying 5 times the legal limit certainly made it sound worse than it was.
