But let’s not do it half-arsed. How about a zero tolerance policy? Why don’t we start arresting people on their way home from church if they’ve taken Communion. After all, impairment begins with the first drink!
Our elected officials rely on studies and research by third party groups, to decide what the legal limit should be, to make the road safe for everyone. Based on this information, it has been decided that to drink in excess of that limit, an individual is not considered a “safe driver” and should be punished. What’s wrong with that? Oh, wait. The collected data was not from FARS. Ahhh, yes. Now I see it. The only real truth in this situation can be found in FARS and anything else is propaganda, trying to take away our most basic liberties. Wow! Thanks for pointing out the error of my ways.
NM has laws already in place. The problem is the defense lawyers that find a loophole to get their client off 2, 3 and more times & judges that don’t enforce the laws. We had an 18 year old that has 3 priors.
The new law will simply give defense lawyers more clients.

Ohh trust me, our elected officials rely on a LOT more than just pesky facts and figures. Most of it quite suspect.
