...or oversight. It's worth noting that the (presumably) sober copper didn't notice it either.

As an aside - it's perfectly possible for a non-drinker to have a BAC above 0%. Zero tolerance would make criminals of people who've not drunk so much as a sip of beer, let alone a pint.

I'd like to see this study, if you have the link to hand... The implication seems to be that you somehow get *better* at driving after the first pint.

I shall have to see
if I can get my hands on a hard copy, the information came via a well respected doctor, whilst talking about the effect of various drugs and their use whilst maintaining or flying aircraft. There is no implication that you get *better* at driving after the 1st pint, but that the effect are more obvious, both to the drinker and those around them.
As for myself, I can feel the significant effect that just 1 beer has on me, and because of this I refuse to drive, ride or fly at all, if I have had anything to drink.(or drink if I am going to drive/ride/fly)
