The Power of the Typo

According to this article, the new drunk driving law in New York has a typo that makes it far more stringent than any other drunk driving law in the US.

Lawmakers approved a bill that sets the standard for driving while intoxicated at 0.18 grams of alcohol in a person's blood. But a person's body can produce that much alcohol naturally, according to Rochester DWI lawyer Ed Fiandach.

Instead of using grams, the law should have used blood alcohol content as a measure...

The law was supposed to go into effect this week, but prosecutors said they won't be able to enforce it until legislators fix the typo.
