The new law here in Pennsylvania isn't DUI or DWI anymore: Now it's DAI, Driving After Imbibing. It's no longer illegal to have a high BAC while you are driving, rather, it is now illegal to have a high BAC within two hours of your last instance of driving.

I think there's a lot of political nonsense that gets tied up with drinking/driving cases. Sure, nobody wants drunks on the roads but the expansion of checkpoints and loosening standards for the police to pull people over just infringes a little more on everybody's freedoms.
