Anyone have a conversion for this, i.e. a comparison of their legal limit to the USA legal limit? I realize there's probably not an across-the-board limit for all of the USA, but isn't .08 something generally recognized. 32x over this USA limit would make you, ummmm, dead, right?

Just divide by 10:

We use % g/ml (or g/dl) in the US.

1.6 grams/liter / 1000 = 0.0016 gram/milliliter

0.0016 gram/milliliter * 100 = 0.16 % BAC

Which is roughly double the US limit.

Otherwise 1.6 in the US limit would be coma/death x 3 to 5 times.

edit: did they really arrest the sheep? English is a messed up language...
