Quebec police say lowering the legal blood-alcohol limit for drivers could save up to 14 lives yearly.

Quebec provincial police estimate that lowering the legal blood-alcohol limit for drivers to .05 could save up to 14 lives annually. Despite calls from the province's automobile insurance board and a Quebec coroner, the province has no plans to lower the limit from .08 to .05, aligning with the federal Criminal Code. The projection is based on data from Alberta and British Columbia.
