I now see your point and the relation to the one pint.
The Law
You MUST NOT drive with a breath alcohol level higher than 35mg/100ml or a blood alcohol level of more than 80mg/100ml
So a blood reading halfed would be 40mg/100ml
After 2 units 1 pint of beer 50mg (Approx)/100ml)
Suppose its all down to individuallaty, I know One Pint (being someone who doesnt drink much) would effect my driving, therfore I stand by dont drink anything and drive.
But I also agree with someone who drinks regular with a meal should be able to enjoy a pint.
IMO the new proposed rulling is maybe a bit overkill. As already said it wont stop those who know they drink and drive.
Where did the origonal information come from?
