I am confused by the MADD statement. Isn't lowering "DWIBaytown wrote:I'm not saying the DL and CHL would be "attached". Just trying to set up a procedure for assuring a CHL in not intox.
There would be nothing wrong with a goal of 0% intox CHL's out there.
I have to agree w tx on MADD
They have done more to lower DWI arrests/prosecutions in this state than anyone.
Glenn
arrests/prosecutions in this state" a good thing? Assuming of course
that fewer folks are DWI because of MADD. The eye-roller seems to
imply disapproval.
As to a 0% goal for CHL, that is the law in NC. And they do exactly
mean 0%, as in NO measurable alcohol in the system. So how long
does alcohol stay in the system? Is carry over a possibility from a night
on town to the next morning? How low a level of alcohol do the systems
currently is use measure?
I would much rather have some level I could know to stay under, like .08,
than an unknowable 0%.
Great discussions. Thanks everyone.
Best Regards,
