Neh. Not here for pandering to the fact that people can't go out for a pub lunch without washing it down with alcohol. Nothing about this nation's relationship with alcohol is "fine"... it's a mess... and the fact that reducing the limit could genuinely have an effect on communities is only further evidence of how unhealthily embedded that cultural alcohol reliance is, to be honest. The fact that is exists does not make it good.

The only area in which I agree that it's an issue is the whole "morning after" problem - i.e. it's impossible to know exactly when your blood alcohol levels have dropped far enough to drive the next day. That's the only problem I can see though. No one "needs" to be drinking and driving on the same day... they just don't. Carpool and have a dedicated driver, rotate who that is each time you go.
