Seriously! Why postulate at all if not for argument, since we were already in a discussion. Your argument on an argument is not self supporting assuming facts not in evidence and in contradiction of the obvious (Captain Obvious if you like).

[hamsamich]

So GLW you are saying you've never seen anybody drink too much?  ever?  really?

Let me enlighten you:

Wow!!!

So, part of the "trade-off" to have legalized marijuana in your state is that you must provide a blood sample (aka DNA database sample) upon demand,...

so, this was the very first item of the info link:

Q: How does marijuana affect my ability to drive?

A: You cannot judge your own level of impairment. Any amount of marijuana consumption puts you at risk of driving impaired.


and this was the second, just to set the tempo:


Q: Is there a legal limit for marijuana impairment while operating a vehicle?

A: Colorado law specifies that drivers with five nanograms of active tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in their whole blood can be prosecuted for driving under the influence (DUI). However, no matter the level of THC, law enforcement officers base arrests on observed impairment.

and as you read on you realize you cannot refuse without losing your driving privilege which is an administrative action and not subject to due process,...


I'm not liking Colorado,...


and I'm not liking the notion of having to provide blood samples to my employer on a for cause or random basis just to keep my job,....

Lowering Legal Blood Alcohol Limits Saves Lives

Alcohol-impaired driving accounts for one in every three motor vehicle crash deaths in the United States.1 The first blood alcohol concentration (BAC) law for drivers (0.15 percent) was introduced in Indiana in 1939. Twenty plus years later, in the 1960s, some states began lowering it to 0.10 percent. It was another 20 years, before the first state, Utah, lowered it to 0.08 percent. By the late 1990s, many other states began to combat preventable injuries and deaths caused by alcohol-impaired driving by lowering their legal limit for BAC from 0.10 to 0.08 g/dL. To address this public health priority, a team of experts conducted an assessment of existing evidence using the systematic review process presented in The Guide to Community Preventive Services (The Community Guide). The results of this assessment formed the basis for the independent Community Preventive Services Task Force (Task Force) recommendation that 0.08 percent BAC laws are effective in reducing alcohol-related motor vehicle fatalities. In the 2001 appropriations, Congress mandated that states adopt the stricter BAC limit of 0.08 percent by October 2003 or risk losing a portion of their highway funding. With this bill in place, the U.S. embarked on a road to save hundreds of lives each year.....

Will Stricter Standards Reduce Drunk Driving?



A few of the driving forces behind the legislative decision include support from the National Transportation Safety Board and National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, as well as academic research on the benefits of decreasing legal BAC limits.

One study, conducted by the University of Chicago and Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation, found that alcohol-related driving fatalities were reduced by 10% between 1982 and 2014 after the U.S. had dropped the legal BAC from .10 to .08.

Additionally, the researchers found that lowering the legal BAC limit from .08 to .05 could reduce fatal alcohol-related crashes by 11%. Researchers estimate that if every state were to adopt the .05 limit, it could potentially save 1,790 lives a year.

Several other states have also considered the .05 legislation over the last few years, including New York, Delaware, Hawaii, and Washington. In Texas, which consistently sees the nation's largest number of drunk driving deaths each year, a recent poll showed that 60% of people support lowering the legal BAC for operating a vehicle.....

soooooooooooooo,....


I reckon 5 nanograms (or less) is gonna be the rule, plus lots of blood tests,....


I hate you dope fiends, not because I hate dope but I sure do hate needles and before you guys came along with your legalize dope movement I didn't have to ponder giving blood on demand,....

[hamsamich]

Honestly....alot of people fill out these things and it specifically states do you ever abuse alcohol.  The question it is asking concerning the alky portion could be taken a thousand different ways.  Hence my point...this whole UA thing is murky at best. If you look up what alky abuse is, one time drinking too much fulfills many of the definitions.  I'm sure most of us didn't march straight down to the security office and tell the people there how you had a little too much last night.

[TVA]

Point is were you ever arrested for it

[hamsamich]

That is NOT all the questionnaire says.

[SloGlo]

Point is were you ever arrested for it

oar failed a f.f.d. testing. unlike states witch publish there criteria fore pass/fail, I ain't never scene a criteria put fourth by a nuke licensee four pass/fail.

[SloGlo]

may bee sum info hear. butt, this is ware non-nuclear business is going.
