One last thing from YOUR link:
In September 2002 the U.S. DOT announced the release of over $80 million in FFY 2002 incentive funds to those states with .08 laws.
Exactly what I had ALREADY mentioned.
I know why they did it
- it wasn't for "safety" as they are painting it as. They did it for the $$$ - just like everything in gov't, It's all about the $$$
I know how to read the statute - and I think it sucks. It gives individual cops WAY too much latitude. As has been shown here cops do and will stick it to people they don't like or who question them. People have the right to question the law and the people who enforce them. Point "a" seems to be a CYA - and doesn't provide the clarity needed for these types of laws. Why have a .08 LIMIT if it is up to a cop anyway? I've sent off emails to to people who are in the REAL know or can get the REAL know. It'll be interesting to see what they think of how the law seems to be allowing quite broad discretion. Chuck Larson is one of them if you must know Look him up - he should be an authority on the subject or if nothing more his colleges are.

They are going to tell you what we said, because we are in the right. People in the know eh? You're an asshole and a dumbass.
Thanks
Ditto to you. You spent multiple posts along with capt klink arguing points that weren't my question.
Yes he is in the know - he is a member of the state Legislature and Chairman of the Republican Party of Iowa. Oh, did I mention he is a lawyer? Yeah, I guess he'd be in the know I also emailed the Iowa Dept of Public safety. Maybe they'd know too.
You didn't tell me squat besides the cop is free to do as they wish. They aren't - they have to follow the law. If the law really is that ambiguous then it needs to be changed to protect citizens from cops like you(if your really are a cop). I have a freind from highschool who is now a state trooper in Wisconsin - he is as much an asshole as you are proving to be. Chip on his shoulder and acts all tough when someone questions him. If you would have answered my question in the beginning instead of it taking 100+ posts all would have been cool but you people proceeded to flame and ignore my question.
That is all I have to say.
