For sure alcohol related road accidents have been reduced by more than
half, thanks to organizations like MADD. There seems to a positive
relationship between any level of serum alcohol and reaction times,
but it gets to be serious enough to affect driving at the high 0.0X
levels.

But they have gone too far by making suspicion almost as bad as a conviction.
The guilty until proven innocent does not apply and in Texas the cost of
successfully defending against a prosecution is around $5k.

That sounds like the same kind of liberties Child Protective Services
take in many states. I do think if you blow a 0.08 the presumptive
assumption is you're DUI in most states. That kind of 'authority' is
the same kind that mandates seat belts or helmets for bike riders.
Sometimes I think the last two should be abolished and let Darwin do
his thing, but DUI too often takes out other people too, and we the
people need protection from that kind of reaping.
