Excellent advice my friends. I completely agree and have a designated driver and toter when necessary. Brings me back to my original question though. I'm more trying to figure out the actual legality of it all. While I have no intention of ever being in a situation that know this law would help, its more for my own curiosity's sake because I've heard so many different stories of what people think the law is.

The main point of disagreement is when you have a CHL, is there zero tolerance on driving, even when not carrying?

I've been trying to sift through the forum and other sources to answer a few questions. I'm hoping y'all can help. I've heard numerous variations of the law from numerous people from zero tolerance on down. Obviously, drunken carry is illegal, but I'm trying to figure out exactly what the other lines drawn by the law are. Questions are below. Thanks again.

1. What is the legality of driving, while under the .08 limit, with a CHL while not carrying?

2. What is the legality of driving, while under the .08 limit (say a beer with dinner), with a CHL while carrying?
