What if I have a meal and its got some red wine in it?
Surely that'll be a trace. Would it be alright for me to be done?

Generally the alcohol evaporates off during cooking, although im not 100% that applies to everything.
I dont see a problem with the current setup, there needs to be a limit thats not rock bottom of the scale that will trip honest people up. The governement would be better working with car manufacturers to develope some sort of system where you have to blow a sample when you start your car - every time. If you blow a positive the car doesnt start......there ive just cured the worlds drink driving problem!

I cant see it putting people in the right mindset to never drink drive, quite the opposite infact.
agreed mate, i think certain people may even end up being over the limit when tnehy hit the age of 21 because theyve celebrated the fact they can have a drink.
