Shirley it would be in the government's/police's/public's best interest if they actually told us that it had been lowered to this level by means of mass media notification (news,TV etc). So I guess not. But there have been reports that they do want it lowered.

If they raise the level, there will be less drink driving accidents. 8 Pints should do it

If they lower it, it will be a good thing, in all conscience no one could complain about that.

They shoul bring it in line with most of the rest of Europe, 50mg/100ml of blood. Current limit is 80mg/100ml.

Sweden has a limit of 20mg/100ml IIRC.
