[. . . ] It is the number one contributor to the highway death toll, claiming thousands of victims every year. Alcohol affects four things that anyone needs to drive a vehicle: · · · · Judgment Muscular Coordination Vision Attentiveness 4-2 Police records show that almost half of all motor vehicle-related deaths involve alcohol. In most cases, these deaths are the result of someone who was drinking and driving. In recent years, more than 16, 000 annual motor vehicle-related deaths have been associated with the use of alcohol, with more than 300, 000 people injured. Many adults -- by some estimates, nearly half the adult population -- choose never to drink alcohol, so they never drive after drinking. For persons under 21, it is against the law in every U. S. There are good medical, psychological and developmental reasons for these laws. The obvious way to eliminate the leading highway safety problem is for people never to drink alcohol and then drive. How much is "too much" if someone plans to drive?Although it depends on each person and situation, here is some general information on the problem. The Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) of someone who is drinking depends upon four things: · The amount of alcohol consumed · The drinker's body weight · The amount of food that is consumed before and during drinking · The length of time it has taken the drinker to consume the alcohol According to the American Medical Association, a 180 lb (82 kg) person who drinks three 12 ounce (355 ml) bottles of beer in an hour will end up with a BAC of about 0. 06 percent. The person would reach the same BAC by drinking three 4 ounce (120 ml) glasses of wine or three mixed drinks if each had 1-1/2 ounces (45 ml) of liquors like whiskey, gin, or vodka. 4-3 It is the amount of alcohol that counts. For example, if the same person drank three double martinis (3 ounces or 90 ml of liquor each) within an hour, the person's BAC would be close to 0. 12 percent. A person who consumes food just before or during drinking will have a somewhat lower BAC level. Women generally have a lower relative percentage of body water than men. Since alcohol is carried in body water, this means that a woman generally will reach a higher BAC level than a man of her same body weight will when each has the same number of drinks. states, and throughout Canada, sets the legal limit at 0. 08 percent. In some other countries, the limit is even lower. For example, it is 0. 05 percent in both France and Germany. The BAC limit for all commercial drivers in the United States is 0. 04 percent. The BAC will be over 0. 10 percent after three to six drinks (in one hour). Of course, as we have seen, it depends on how much alcohol is in the drinks, and how quickly the person drinks them. But the ability to drive is affected well below a BAC of 0. 10 percent. [. . . ] Memory Seat, Mirrors and Steering Wheel . . . . . .
