but still why drink that one beer if someone said to me i cant have a coke then ill get a lemonade
so why drink a beer when you could as easily drink something none alcoholic.
If i wanted something other than a beer, I'd go to a milk bar.
And we all know its hard to stop at one beer
Speak for yourself, I quite often pull into a pub on the way home from being out for a nice cold beer.
.02 is a better option. I have a mate in NSW whom lost his license (P Plater) after leaving a restaurant, little to his knowledge they dressed the desert in an orange liqueur he blew .02 the police said if you eat out request a meal without alcohol and make a point of it,
its the same as medicine, if you take it you cant drive (plenty of medicines that dont contain alcohol and wont give you a reading) thats what i was told from a bloke at the RTA....
Common sense says to make sure you know what your eating, this isnt an excuse to change the legal limit.
if you wanna drink stay home and do it or catch a cab to the pub
just my opinion
Or how about we realise .05 has zero effect on drivers which is why it is perfectly legal?
We have lost so many liberties that have no effect on the public, adding this to the list is just another nail in the coffin of the nanny state that is Australia.
Instead of wasting money on changing a law that doesn't need to be changed, perhaps they should be out there finding ways of stopping drug dealers, rapists, murderers and the like. They cant make easy revenue from these criminals though, so easier to fine people for enjoying a beer or 2.
