The Queensland Government is considering lowering the blood alcohol limit for drivers to 0.02.

It has released a discussion paper on drink driving, which canvasses dropping the blood alcohol limit from its current level of 0.05.

The 0.02 limit would bring Australia in line with Norway and Sweden, which record the lowest number of deaths on roads in the world.

Premier Anna Bligh says it would need to be done nationally, but she has asked Queenslanders to comment.

Spokesmen for state governments in New South Wales and Victoria said there were no plans to change the limit.

Other options include the immediate suspension of drink drivers with a blood alcohol level of 0.1 - down from 0.15 - and the compulsory blood testing of drivers who attend hospital as a result of a road crash.

Last year 71 people died on Queensland roads in crashes involving alcohol, which equates to 21 per cent of the state's road toll.
