Leaving the legal issue aside, the question is whether or not to drive after consuming any amount of alcohol. Many researches have shown that impairment due to drinking begins long before a person reaches the blood alcohol concentration level set by the government to be guilty of drunken driving.

The Legal Limit

The legal limit for drunk driving is a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level of 0.08, in all 50 states. This means that a woman weighing 120-pound can reach a 0.08 BAC level after only two drinks, whereas a man weighing 180-pound can reach 0.08 after only four drinks.

A drink can be any drink having some amount of alcohol, be it one shot of liquor, or a five-ounce glass of wine or one beer.
