Re: So I\'m going to Prison for 2 years
 

Sees hat most poster don't get that being impaired does not mean that you're drunk out of your mind.
Sure you'll feel ok at 0,8. Nobody's drunk at 0,8 and almost everyone will be sure that they can drive without any problems.
But if you truly feel that 0,8 is too low, go to a race track, and try to race sober and then drink till you're at 0,8. Have fun trying to match your best lap!

By the way, if they say .08 is a crime, and I blow a .07 and still get put away, I'd be pissed, fwiw.

This is the BULLSHIAT part. All DUI's in CA have what's called and A and B charge.

Part A is the actual chemical reading which has to be over 0.07

Part B is the arresting officers OPINION... his OPINION.

In California, the DA is only required to prove ONE of the two charges for you to be penalized and found guilty.

Therefore, if the test says you're sober... but the officer "FEELS" you're drunk... you're charged.

If the officer feels your OK to go... you pass all the tests... BUT his partner shoves the breath test in your mouth and you blow over 0.07... you're charged.

It's like built in double jeopardy.

You can be as self-righteous about the status of DUI laws as you want, but there's one real easy way to avoid a DUI. Don't [censored] drink and drive. And especially, don't [censored] drink and drive if it's not even legal for you to drink.
