sounds like bullshit.
In the early days of breath testing there were yarns about peoples aftershave setting off the testers, I know a guy who failed a test (stone cold sober) driving his car home after he had finished painting it - fumes from the paint set off the tester. Explained to cop who obliged ad re-tested him upwind of the car, and passed.
But, those days are gone, the testers used now are much better at avoiding false positives.
again, theres no story here, it was just a slow news day

Fair to challenge. Call out what smells.
But two stories. OK one. My gf now wife had some deluded idea of becoming a cop. She went along for a ride along. They wand tested some chick. After a previous failed customer she then failed. Back to station. Process. Passed easily.
Back out on beat. So will you use that wand again. Yeah of course.
That was one of the reasons she didn't join.
Well that and deplorying violence. Anyhoo.
I bought a fuel cell tester when the level changed. Turns out my imposed limit was pretty much the new limit. But heck I noticed if I tested myself not long after a sip.
Don't you look at my accountant.

Used to work at Burger Fuel in Hamilton and used meths to clean the stainless steel. Heaps of us failed on the booze bus stops on the way home as it went ape shit at the meths all over us. The blowy things were ok just the sniffer ones not so iirc.

One standard unit of alcohol is converted by the average male in a hour.
Handy fact to know when leaving a bike rally and going through a checkpoint. Still some don't.

Under the influence sounds wonderful but the link has to made and proven.

What if that person worked nightshift and had a beer "after work"?

Yeah saw that along with zero level shock headlines.
Two Australians selling watermelon off the back of a truck. Buying them from the growers at $1 and selling them for $1. One says to the other. "Hey we're not making much money"
"Yeah. We need a bigger truck".
Same thing. Stuck on a path and can't see its not working. Let's try more of the same, but More so .
And don't get me wrong. Impaired drivers should not be on our roads. But this clearly isn't working.
It is hard to change people's behavior. The stick doesn't work unless you are virtually omnipresent. Peer pressure can , and has. Except a bunch of these prices peers are the same dick heads.

Years ago I did a reaction test to show the effects of alcohol. Bit of an eye opener. In more recent years I had a wake up call after drinking 2 4%beers over 3 hours.
I will not drink at all if I have to drive these days. I may pass a breath test but knowing the subtle influence of a couple of beers, my conscience won't let me.
This is the first reaction test I found online, produced by a student, but it does show a change after 2 units of vodka.
We all metabolise differently and I'm a cheap night out. It is worth considering for those who regularly have an afterwork beer (or before), especially on an empty stomach.

Things have changed a lot. In my youth someone who "drank with the flies" was considered to have a serious problem. The grossly excessive amounts we drank were believed to be "social". Now nobody I know goes out to drink much at all, drinking alone is a better way to keep your licence.
Some years ago a group of us had travelled to a sports event and following the events of the day we had been sitting in the motel having a few drinks and yakking for an hour or two. The subject of drink driving came up. One of our number who had considerable experience in the use of breath testing equipment, and who just happened to have a supply of the required hardware with hm, decided we would all surely fail a test. We all had a blow and nobody blew green which was pretty much as big a surpise to us as it was to him. He then asked one guy to take another mouthful and retest. Green!
I've never had "one for the road" since then.

they need to differentiate between drunk and drugged, it could be that drunk is down and drugged is up which is what I would suggest.
people have been aware for a long time that being caught under the influence of alcohol is easy with a blow of the bag so to speak but roadside testing of drugs is not common so more likely to get away with it, unless of course they crash

Just make the limit zero. If its zero, there is no tolerance everybody knows the limit.
Fuck people drinking and driving, there is already enough death on the road without letting dickheads decide what is acceptable before thyey hit the road.......or one of your kids, or a friend,or one of your family.
Too many entitled wankers on the road without impairing themselves with alcohol or drugs. So many people getting killed by fucktards that drive impaired and feel entitled.
Fuck em I say
Smarty pants... since ages ago
Speed limits are ignored by most if it suits. As are the drug/alcohol limits by far too many. People are going to jail for an excessive number of drink driving convictions ... often it's not for the first time.Just make the limit zero. If its zero, there is no tolerance everybody knows the limit.

The one's that would adhere to these limits you've proposed ... were never the problem drivers with the current limits.
