Re: Common sense at last [Scottish Drink Drive Limit]
As I understand it you're only obliged to involve the police in an accident if personal injury is involved. Otherwise it's just exchanging details.
Alcohol affects different people differently, for a teetotaller 1/2 a glass of wine might render them totally unfit to drive yet be well within the "limit" whereas a hardened functional alcoholic could well be quite safe* but be over the limit.
I favour the USA sobriety tests that test for actual impairment rather than some artificial limit.
*Safe as in responding in the same way as a legal driver of say 75.
