Until the big crackdown on drunk driving a decade or so ago, most states' DWI level 0.15, and even then it was frequently nonconclusive evidence of intoxication. As Skoob hinted above, lots of people appear functional at that level (ie, not falling down drunk). That's pretty damn high for someone on the job, though-any job much less a road cop.

The accident sounds like there is some issues with the cyclists as well.

From the article:
Initially, an IMPD spokesman said publicly that the motorcyclists had failed to move over as Bisard's car approached.

But witnesses said they were blocked in by cars, and motorcycle safety experts said the motorcyclists did the right thing by staying put.

Also why you care if I am illiterate? You don't pay no bills in my house? You're a complete and utter nobody. So what you make some snippy post, does that make feel like a big man? You need to compensate. Why do you care if I think that he was maybe just reckless and not drunk? Do I get under your skin that much? You post about me and not the story. You and nick, mjinz, and boomerd, you all just can't resist the power of the classical one. I throw you clowns in a titty fit to the point you'll stop everything just to take a shot at me.

Proof above. :awe:

fvck you

Thats all you guys ever have. Some racial bs. I am not saying the guy is innocent, but until there is some further look at the bloodtest I am going to give the guy the benefit of the doubt that he was reckless and not in some drunken stupor.
Grow up......

And I like your swastika look a like avatar.....Real................classy

Ah now Classy...if you'd ever learn to read and write English...maybe you'd feel differently about us Grammar Nazi folk...but, since we don't recognize Ebonics as a language form, maybe not...

You can always tell when classy becomes unglued.

"hehehehehehehehehehehehehe"

I am not unglued at all. I simply said I give the cop the benefit of the doubt at this point for the drunk driving. And all of sudden mbane and his concubine got all worked up. Wait your in that concubine too right?

I suck at being drunk and even I could easily walk at .19. That is barely over twice the legal limit, so 4-5 beer in a fairly short period of time. There have been many DWIs with people in the .30 or .40 range and unless somebody carried them to their car they must have walked to it.

I remember when .15 was the legal limit for driving. Anything over that and you'd get busted for DWI. Hell, I'm guessing any self respecting alcoholic can appear perfectly normal at .19.
