Law in Your Life #42: Boating While Intoxicated
This session, Missouri lawmakers changed the legal blood-alcohol limit for boating from .10 to .08. That makes it the same as the limit for driving. What does this mean for boaters this holiday?

Lake of the Ozarks attorney Erik Bergmanis explains the new law and consequences with host Angela Wilson.
