Only tangentially related but

According to the law, cars can be confiscated by the state if the driver's recorded intoxication level is over 1.5 per mille, which is equivalent to a blood alcohol concentration of 0.15%.

Damn, the drunk driving BAC is over twice that of burgerland.

Had me onboard in the first half then promptly lost me.

Higher death rate per capita than:

  • Weed

  • Heroin

  • Meth

  • Cocaine

But NOT higher death rate than:

  • Sugar (In a way, Coke® is deadlier than Coke)

  • Cars (even if no one drove drunk)

  • Poverty

  • Climate change

Obviously not saying we should legalize every single drug, but just saying there are way worse things than the most fear mongered stuff that most people don't give a shit about.
