I read all that and I do not dispute it. Perhaps I did not make myself clear. I am asking what are the components of that particular table. Is it only alcohol or were other things tested for? According to those statistics, it seems that driving is more risky with lower BAC levels than it is with higher levels . That is jumping out at me. Are there other circumstances to consider? If we are going to be evidence-based on this, can we at least have some understanding of why that is the case?
