-THE PLAIN DEALER, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1991 Tougher drunken-driving standard sought JOHN CHALFANT ASSOCIATED PRESS COLUMBUS Opponents of drunken driving stepped up their attack yesterday by introducing a legislative proposal that would lower the state's legal standard for intoxication. 3 State Sen. Betty Montgomery, R-2, of Perrysburg, and state Rep. Jon Myers, R-78, of Lancaster, want to lower the blood-alcohol level at which a motorist is presumed to be drunk from 0.10% to 0.08%. They said their legislation would increase the number of convictions statewide for driving under the influence of alcohol.

They intend to offer companion bills in the Senate and House. "I think the overwhelming evidence scientifically establishes that most people are impaired and should not be driving at a 0.08 level," Montgomery said. Myers said some drunken-driving opponents would prefer an even lower standard. "We think this will help send the message that if you are an impaired 4.

"We're not nec- Vermont, Maine, Oregon, Utah and essarily saying it's the drunk driver, California.

Myers said tests conducted by the State Highway on 2,827 drivers arrested 1 for drunken driving in 1990 produced results ranging from zero to 0.09%.

Of those motorists, 949 had been involved in crashes before their arrests. A patrol survey of 212 blood samples taken as a result of fatal crashes showed 30 tested between 0.05% and 0.10%. Alcohol concentration can be measured through blood tests or through tests of breath, urine or saliva. The proposal was endorsed by the patrol and Mothers Against Drunk Driving. Montgomery, a former prosecuting attorney, said public attitudes about drunken driving have changed over the last decade as a result of efforts by MADD and the patrol.

"I didn't have to convince anyone that a theft was a crime or a burglary was a crime. But my first job as a prosecutor was to convince them that DUIs were crimes, and then to convince them that this particular defendant committed the DUI. I don't think that's the case now," she said. drug tests Cabinet vol voluntarily submits to drug tests By MARY BETH LANE PLAIN DEALER BUREAU COLUMBUS Gov. George V.

"It was the most surprising City Council election that I've ever seen, Burke said. He said the Democratic Party, which appointed Tillery to a council seat' in January, was openly skeptical about his prospects Tuesday. "None of us ever dreamed he would be the mayor," said Burke.
