    It’s pretty wild really. In my country, it’s pretty “normal” to drink 2 beers and then drive home. However, if I drink a sip of beer before work, I’d be immediately fired, because it’d be unsafe for me to have any kind of alcohol in my blood.

    So we acknowledge that even tiny amounts of alcohol can impair you to the point of being a danger, unless you’re driving a 2 ton heavy machine at 130 km/h on your way home…

      In Canada, there is zero tolerance for new teen drivers, but once they get their full licence, they can drink and drive. Really sends a message, and 20 somethings get killed every single weekend.
