Article Synopsis
- NTSB proposed lowering the legal BAC limit from 0.08 to 0.05 g/dL in 2013, which was enacted in Utah in 2017.
- Surveyed opinions from law enforcement officers, prosecutors, and defense attorneys indicated concerns about the effectiveness and challenges of enforcing the new 0.05 limit compared to the 0.08 limit.
- While the 0.05 limit is seen as beneficial for reducing drunk driving incidents, there is a need for better training, public education, and modifications to the existing protocols for sobriety testing.
