    Default Feds want to lower BAC to .05 for drunk driving

    I'm all for this but the constitution says DUI is a state issue. Of course 99% of what the feds do should be handled by the states if we follow the constitution; in particular the 10th amendment.


    http://freebeacon.com/issues/feds-wa...-to-one-drink/

    jan 15 2016 The National Transportation Safety Board wants to decrease the legal driving limit to one drink, lowering the legal limit on blood-alcohol content to 0.05 “or even lower.”

    The agency released its “most wanted list” on Wednesday, a laundry list of policies it would like implemented nationally. The list includes recommendations to reduce the current 0.08 blood alcohol content limit and outlaw all cell phone use while driving, even hands-free technology.

    “When it comes to alcohol use, we know that impairment begins before a person’s BAC reaches 0.08 percent, the current legal limit in the United States,” the agency said. “In fact, by the time it reaches that level, the risk of a fatal crash has more than doubled. That is why states should lower BAC levels to 0.05— or even lower.”

    Drunk driving is a super-violent drug crime and the law should treat it as such.

    I agree with TDK. We need to get drunks off the roads.
    If it takes federal steps to accomplish that, so be it.
    There were no interstate highways when the constitution was written.

    We need to get stoners and opiate freaks off the roads as well. It's sickening how the smell of alcohol can be so litigious but the dopers get free passes every day. Do you not agree? I've seen people very close to me that don't drink at all. But they get so fucked up on other things not so immediately recognizable that it's just a shame and they certainly SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING ANYTHING beyond maybe a golf ball.

    But if they do that, Bucky; how are you going to ever find a way to get home??

    You don't understand. The interstate highways system is clearly unconstitutional and when the feds decided to create one, they should have amended the constitution to give themselves authority to do so. Yes, times change and the constitution should change with them. That's why the FF wrote the amending process into the constitution.

    As it is, all federal highways are unconstitutional and any involvement in drunk driving would be too.

    The legalize-drug movement is funded by the auto industry. Car crashes mean car sales and they have lost a lot of money due to the war on DUI. They want stoned drivers.

    That's also why the auto industry builds cars that do 100 mph and installs distracting devices like internet access.

    "In 2013, a total of 43,982 deaths in the United States were attributed to drug poisoning, including 16,235 deaths (37%) involving opioid analgesics.

    Why no worry about something important.
    Put blame where it belongs
    ATF decided it could not regulate bump stocks during the Obama administration.
    It that time," the NRA wrote in a statement. "The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semiautomatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations."
    The ATF and Obama admin. ignored the NRA recommendations.

    Because those are people who injured THEMSELVES. Drunk drivers often kill or maim OTHERS.

    Board notes you evaded the issue. Tell us where the constitution says the feds can build roads. Actually Article 1 section 8 does give congress power "To establish Post Offices and Post Roads", but that's it.

    I like the interstates but the tenth amendment makes it clear roadbuilding is up to the states. The constitution should have been amended to allow this construction by the feds. Case closed. Looks like i gutted you again.
