How much does alcohol from the night before affect your driving in the morning?

[silly-sinny]

I am not a big drinker, I have like 1-2 glasses of wine every blue moon or so, but my dad and I have an ongoing difference of opinion.

I'm still on my probationary lisence, so my blood alcohol needs to be firmly.00 if I get pulled over in random breath tests.

I think that one or two glasses of wine the night before, along with water and food, in bed by about 11pm and 8 hours sleep or so, should be enough to prevent the wine from affecting my driving the next day.

My dad thinks I should wait until at least the afternoon, if not the day after, before driving.

What do you guys think?

The metabolic rate at which alcohol is broken down is termed as
Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC). This is usually.015 BAC per hour.
This in turn means that a person who has 0.15 BAC drains out all the
alcohol from his body within 10 hours since its consumption. A 0.10 BAC
level can be mapped to a metabolism time period of 10 hours while a 0.02
BAC level corresponds to a metabolism period of 1,33 hours.

Thank you for Mho :)

No problem. :) I figure that formula will be useful for two things: 1, I can see what my BAC is at any time, and 2, if I can't figure it out in my head on the spot at the time, I'm too drunk to be driving. :P

there are a lot of variables... exact time, body mass and what you´ve been eating have a strong influence. best google a calculator.

I think it depends on your tolerance. If you're drunk, it's probably not enough time. But if that much wine doesn't even have you buzzed then you're probably fine.

I always thought one hour per drink so if you had two wines you will be grand next morning.

I don't know... tried a sip of wine once and it tastes disgusting...

[throwit]

It only depends on how hungover I am
