New York State Woman Allegedly Drove Over 3X BAC Limit

Officials say a New York state woman was arrested and charged with aggravated DWI after she was driving over three times the state's legal limit. Police say the arrest happened earlier in the month after they responded to reports of a disabled vehicle.

SA Health says that a BAC of 0.15 to 0.30% will put you at high risk with "likely effects" of inadequate breathing, inability to walk without assistance, loss of bladder control and possibly losing consciousness.
