We are not changing the level.

Deputy O'Keeffe talks about the following morning. People are still impaired the following morning. Of alcohol-related fatal crashes, 14% happen between 6 a.m. and 12 noon. People may not feel they are impaired and may be in a somewhat different mental condition but they are still impaired. One cannot say it is all right to drive the following morning when one's blood alcohol content is still over the limit. One cannot do that. That would be like saying that people who drink during the day should get off at night. It just does not wash.

I did not get Deputy O'Keeffe's point about tourists.
