There used to be a HARD stigma against it, since we know what happens. People used to get so drunk that we had to create a state monopoly of alcohol sales, in an attempt to reduce it. People argue about the actual effect, but i know that itâs cultural suicide to get behind the wheel drunk. The legal limit is 0,2 ppm alcohol.
The Danes however⌠They could drink 3 halfliter lagers before reaching the legal limit of 0,8
weâve even recently had a controversy where people had some blood tests done (or something like that) showing elevated levels of pETH or whatever itâs called, and this made them lose their license.
really wish weâd just mandate beathalyzer locks in all cars instead

Danish limit is 0,5 like most of Europe. Most people here have a rule of thumb of 2 regular beers.

My bad. I mixed it up with the uk. They actually never had a limit until 1998 đŹ
