Lower drink-drive limit supported
in [UK Drivers]

From: Bod on 17 Mar 2010 05:22 I personally think the limit that we have now is strict enough. Any lower and a lot of restaurants/pubs etc will all be closing en masse, this due to diners being terrified at having even just one glass of wine with a meal. Most folk I know (including me) will only risk having one pint or 1 glass of wine, as it stands now. Opinions? http://uk.news.yahoo.com/21/20100317/tuk-lower-drink-drive-limit-supported-6323e80.html Bod

The morning after is the time when alcohol concentration in the blood is falling. Apparently you are less impaired when this is happening.
