Government's Proposed 0.02 Blood Booze Reading

A Canberra P-plate driver has been banned from the roads after being caught driving more than 19 times over the legal blood-alcohol limit.

Joanne Grosse, 21, could only "mumble" after being found slumped over the wheel of her Ford Laser on the side of the road, the ACT Magistrates Court heard.

"It appeared the vehicle had impacted the left-hand guttering and come to a stop," the Daily Telegraph reported police as noting after finding two of her car's tyres were deflated.

The court heard that Grosse, who already had a previous drink-driving conviction, continued drinking at home after a night out last November.

She allegedly consumed more wine about 7.15am before her boyfriend dropped her off at her car parked in the city.

An hour later she was found behind the wheel of the damaged car with a "strong smell of liquor".

Police recorded blood-alcohol concentration at 0.385.

The territory's maximum legal BAC for a P-plater is .02.

So it looks like .02 works well
