USA has got to have some of the dumbest laws. Re alcohol, CA is now considering lowering the BAC max to .05. How ridiculous but I suspect legislators will approve it. Most people function fine after two drinks within an hour and aren't the ones who cause accidents. Meanwhile, Germany allows 16 year-olds to begin maturing with alcohol (beer and wine) and many others at 18 years. At any rate, good to know if you're a young foreigner already adapted to alcohol that your cruise ship may prohibit you from it.
