An Unexpected Finding Among Commercial Pilots

Then they must get a lot of cases that go to court because that's bad science.

They get a lot of cases because some people still cannot prevent themselves
from drinking and driving. Those people often go to jail. There's nothing
wrong with the science.

You can get a non-zero reading without consuming alcohol, even with
lab-grade equipment.

All you have to do is prove that it's not alcohol.

That's why the FAA allows up to a .02% BAC reading before flying.

It should be zero.

If the law will convict anyone on 0.01% BAC then the law is a ass.

1. One kind of false positive doesn't involve ingestible alcohol.
2. And "consuming" is a clue to a second source of false positives.

Nope. That would be bad science.

Why? Because it inconveniences people who want to take drugs all the time,
even while driving or flying?

Whoosh,.

Well, it's pretty obvious why you don't feel the need to take drugs,
anyway..
