high. And if you get into an accident you are really screwed.

Jesus Christ Gump. Why not just not drink and drive period. It's safer and
cheaper.

Bwahahahaha!! A "1.0" blood alcohol would put you in the morgue. In
fact, the highest blood alcohol level ever recorded in a human was 0.8, and
she was dead as a doornail. This was a woman who was forced at gunpoint to
drink a fifth of vodka straight, by a sadistic loony who knew it would kill
her.
Two beers drunk quickly on an empty stomach would produce AT MOST a
0.05, more likely a 0.04. Two beers and a shot would probably produce a
0.06 or 0.07. Anyone who is at or above 0.10 is lying if they say they only
had two beers.
I myself had two beers with lunch on my fateful day, was not the
slightest bit intoxicated, and had a blood alcohol of 0.034 (one third of
the legal limit). For that, I was forced into 9 months of outpatient
treatment and 12-step hell. Of course, this had nothing to do with DUI or
the legal system.

Blood alcohol levels drop at a rate of 0.02 per hour in the average
healthy individual. Food will slow down the process. Coffee will have
absolutely no effect on the BAL. You are a jerk.

I agree with you, to a certain extent. But sometimes, especially in
the case of young people, they find themselves in a situation where they
have not planned ahead for their transportation needs. It is appropriate
for them to know how long to wait to drive after having a few drinks.

Glad you noticed that too. I was reading and cracking up.

It depends on the test subject's size/weight and levels of body fat-
and lung capacity (depending on which test instrument is used to determine
their BAC) -and also how long it's been since they consumed the alcohol (
residual alcohol in the mouth can skew the results, and BAC drops with
the passage of time since consumption .)

9 months of that crap?
I remember reading your story. I'm glad you retained counself and fought
the fools- just sorry you had to endure 9 months of forced attendance at
the snake-oil tent.
Wonder what would have happened if you- or any forced attendee- had
gone to a meeting and told them you were so impressed by Bill W's story
that you had tried belladonna while receiving mercury enemas and now,
sadly, were powerless over belladonna and mercury-enemas?

Courts here have accepted the standard of .01 per hour, not .02.
