No. NYRA fiercely and unqualifyingly opposes drinking and driving, it is a dangerous practice that should be stopped. NYRA’s one and only concern as an organization is age discrimination, that is why we push to reform drinking age laws. As for other alcohol laws not related to age, it really isn’t our concern. If states wanted to lower the BAC to .05 for all drivers it wouldn’t matter to us. NYRA supports all non-ageist policies that seek to reduce the deadly practice of drunk driving.
