There is a simple way to know if you are over the limit.  Ask yourself,
"Have I had a drink tonight?"  If the answer is "yes", then don't drive.  If
the answer is "no", then feel free to drive your buddies who have drank home.

Any amount of alcohol in your bloodstream is an indication that you
shouldn't drive, since any alcohol slows down your reflexes.  Don't question
whether or not you are legal, question whether or not you are dangerous.
