So, how do you teach it now, please.llwatson wrote:You know, there is so much of this that is subject to interpretation. And how you teach it comes down to:JKDubb wrote:txinvestigator wrote: 2. Because there is no "legal limit" of intoxication for carrying while intoxicated, it is illegal to drink any amount of alcohol while carrying. He explained this to me at break that regardless of the law, the CHL holders don't need to be drinking if they carry. so by misinforming them, they think they cannot drink at all.

This is what I was taught at my class I guess I need to review my manual.
Just how does that UCW thing work?
Who taught your instructor class?
How did they say it on that day?
What did you write down in your notes?
I used to teach that no amount of alcohol was legal, because I would have sworn that was what I heard. Next instructor update, it was explained a little better... that BAC is not the determining factor in whether or not you are intoxicated; it is up to the officer to decide at the time based on several factors. And, I changed the way I taught it.
In my first class 4.5 years ago, I was taught no alcohol...period.
In this last class, they said not intoxicated.
To me, as a reasonable citizen, it still means no alcohol.
