In Georgia, a driver can be arrested for DUI even if their blood alcohol concentration is less than the legal limit of .08 if they are shown to be a less safe driver. Atlanta DUI advocates are concerned about some of the applications that take place with this law. If an officer can demonstrate that they believed a person to be a less safe driver, they can still arrest that person for DUI.
Proving that a person is a less safe driver is a matter for conjecture. What one person may consider less safe, another might not. The law is not specific, but rather it is extremely subjective. Advocates for civil liberties believe that laws such as this open doors that can lead to abuse of power. Most people would agree that if a car is involved in a single car accident, or an accident where that car is at fault and the driver has had a drink that it could demonstrate a less safe condition.
