Bill sets national blood alcohol standard for driving
The Senate approved a 0.08 percent national blood alcohol standard for drunken driving as part of a $54.7 billion highway funding bill for fiscal year 2001. States failing to adopt 0.08 by 2004 would lose highway trust fund money. 18 states and DC already meet it, while 32 use 0.10 or less. President Clinton praised the move and urged final passage. the House bill lacks the 0.08 provision and trucker hours limits, awaiting reconciliation.
