man people on these forums absolutely freak out at the first mention of driving after drinking.

driving when actually drunk is pretty much just reckless disregard for human life. shockingly enough, it pisses people off.

Please. Let's not overexaggerate things here. .08 is like 3 beers in an hour and that's "actually drunk" (at least in Maryland). I'm sure you NEVER do that,eh Xorbie?

You know what? It's idiots like you that piss me off. Have you ever been hit by a drunk driver? Have you ever had to spend Christmas and New Year's at the hospital when you are 8 years old wondering if your mother and sister are going to live?
It's been big news in North Jersey last week, but some [censored] rear-ended a car on Rt. 80 causing that car to cross the median and hit another car head on. Three people were killed. The kid who caused the accident walked away without a scratch. Know what he blew? A .09, he said he had 3 beers in NYC before coming home. So STFU, .08 is bad to drive.
And no, not everyone drives when they drink. It's called being responsible. Maybe you should try it before you kill someone. If someone gets killed because of your stupidity, make sure it's you and not some innocent person.

WHile I am sorry for your personal experience, it does not mean that all people are going be dangerous drivers at .09 BAC. The problem with BAC is that it measures the alcohol in your blood, not the effect on the person. There are plenty of people in the world capable of driving safely with a BAC above the legal limit.
