I'm the same. If I'm going to drive, I simply don't drink. Well, let me qualify that. If I'm at lunch and I will be driving home 4 or 5 hours later, I might have one drink. But if I'm going to be driving within the next couple of hours, I don't drink at all. It costs me nothing to not have a drink.

>It is considered normal to have a drink on guest party. I am not a big drinker, but, still, I feel less than 100% if I have to abstain from drinking because I will have to drive home. It happens often, because I don't drink at all, if I have to drive after it. It is not even because I would not control myself after 1-2 drinks; I just hate taking chances to lose.

>>There probably is no problem with a glass of wine at dinner, but for some it might be. Ok, I'd go along with lowering the limit to .02. Truly, you're right. I am harsh on this. I admit it. I figure if you are going to drive within say 2 hours of having a drink, don't have it. Who's it going to kill if you don't have a drink?

>>>I find this a little too harsh. I don't see a problem having a glass of wine at diner and taking my car after. The limit could be lowered to 0.05 however. Of course, it's still zero tolerance for, new/young drivers, truck drivers and emergency vehicule drivers.

>>>>I disagree. I have no problem with zero tolerance for anybody who drinks and drives. I feel sorry for any person who, knowing he's going to be a car, still feels he can't have a good time without drinking alcohol. If drinking is that important, get a cab or a designated driver. I'm a real hardliner on this one.
