In an attempt to reduce drunk driving, police set up vehicle checkpoints during the July 4 evening. The police randomly selects vehicles to be stopped for "informational" checks. On a particular roadway assume that 4% of all drivers have a blood alcohol level above the legal limit. During the evening, it is estimated that the checkpoint has the capacity to stop 200 vehicles. Compute the probability that of the 200 drivers, 8, or more will exceed the legal limit (round your answer to 4 decimals)
