No the .02 is because the breathlyser cannot accurately measure a lower figure. They wanted to make it zero but the technology isn't capable. I imagine you would have to blood test everyone to get an accurate zero figure which obviously isn't practical in terms of screening high numbers of people.

Either way the whole thing is a waste of time. How many convictions of airline pilots are we up to with this program?

More taxpayers money well spent.
