Mr. Con O'Donohue:

Deputy Troy mentioned an example of somebody driving the morning after having a few drinks the night before. Research indicates that people at 40 mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood are twice as likely to be involved in a collision. The legal limit for the majority of drivers is 50 mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood. At the 80 mg level, people are six times as likely to be involved in a collision. In research from 2008 to 2012, based on culpable drivers and alcohol factors, between the zero level and 80 mg level, we estimate seven to eight people were being killed every year with those sorts of levels. No matter what the level, there is an impact.
