One source says his BAC was 0.05%. California's legal limit is 0.08%. That doesn't exclude it from being a factor, just pointing out the guy wasn't blitzed out of his mind or anything.

The part about being unclear if AP was engaged is quite suspect though, given they have been able to definitively say in other crashes whether it was on or off and even if it had been disengaged moments prior to the accident.
