REDMOND, Wash. - A Woodinville woman arrested following two car crashes last week registered a .47 blood-alcohol content on a breath test — nearly six times the legal intoxication threshold and possibly a state record.



Deana F. Jarrett, 54, was taken to Evergreen Hospital as a precaution following her arrest April 11, the Washington State Patrol said Wednesday. No one was injured in the accidents.



Jarrett blew the .47 on a portable breath tester after she collided with two other vehicles in quick succession, the patrol said. A check of all 356,000 breath tests administered since 1998 in Washington turned up only 35 above .40 — and none of those was higher than .45.



The legal intoxication threshold in Washington is .08.



Jarrett did not appear to have a listed phone number, and it was not clear if she had obtained a lawyer.


I'm.... impressed, in a negative way. I know I could google it, but does anyone know what the fatal alcohol level is?
