I can't speak to how accurate it is... but I had 3 x 12oz beers between 5pm and 9pm and blew .03

I weigh 194lb and am 6'1". I ate pizza during that time as well.

I typically will only have 2 beers when I go out to a herf.

As for driving with my 4 year old son... Some days he nags me that the cops are going to give me a ticket and other days he's egging me on: "Lightning McQueen, Daddy, Lightning McQueen!"

I don't get passed much.

I cannot confirm nor deny any habits of excessive forward motion at any instances at this time, per the suggestions of legal counsel.
Safe and alert driving is paramount, and it is better to be slightly aggressive in driving and passing at all times, with proper lane use and observation of road and traffic conditions.

I drive a V8......any questions?

To qualify my .05, in Michigan if you have a concealed pistol license (CPL), the maximum BAC (when carrying) allowed is .02 which is often legally defined as "any detectable alcohol content".

I'm usually chilling like a villian.

Depending on where I am in town, 5-10 over.

If I'm on the interstate, it is usually 15-20 over (police officers are VERY understaffed here).

If I'm in Red Bank (15 speed cameras in about 10 square miles), then I'm doing 5 under with everyone else.

Looks like I'm the only old pokey ass...1 to 5 under...always in the slow lane though, does wonders for my gas mileage....more money for baccy.

speed limit laws are point less. on the interstate no one should be going over 30 in thick fog and black ice, but if it is sunny clear and dry why can't we go 100 or more? the basic speed rule should be in effect, and slow asses should drive in the right lane and leave the left lanes for those who want to pass and drive faster. speed laws are just as foolish as drunk driving laws. the focus should be on reckless drivers.

My car don't know slow.

These days I usually follow the limit in town and I am 7 over on the highways. This hasn't always been the case tho when I had my Supra or a running Bike . . they've both seen speeds that easily double limits many times.

Too many dumb people in the states for that and not a serious enough form driver's education.

80 MPH in a school zone? They should have their rides seized for a minimum of forever.
