Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: The results are reported of a study conducted in the State of Maine to assess the impact of lowering the per se standard from .10% BAC to .08% BAC on DWI enforcement and adjudication. The .08% standard was adopted at the end of 1988 following four years of essentially no changes in Maine's DWI laws. The study analyzed differences between 1989 DWI arrests, court dispositions, and judgements; and trends projected from 1985-1988 data.
