The number of beers it takes to exceed the legal limit for driving varies based on factors such as body weight, gender, metabolism, and the alcohol content of the beer. In the U.S., the legal limit is typically a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of 0.08%. For an average adult, consuming about 3-4 standard beers within a couple of hours could potentially bring them close to or over this limit, but individual responses to alcohol can differ significantly. It's always safest to avoid drinking and driving altogether.

How many light beers can a 150 lb person have to be cosidered for DWI?

It depends on your alcohol tolerance, but generally one or two in one hour would put you over the legal limit, however it is possible for some people to drink much more and still function well enough to drive a car, but they are still over the legal limit. If your worried have a couple and hang out for about an hour before you drive.


Can you be over the drink drive limit drinking alcohol free beer?

Technically, alcohol free beer doesn't exist. Most contain about .05% alcohol, compared to 4-6% for an average beer. So, the average 175 lb person would be over the legal limit if they were to drink three beers in a relatively short amount of time. To achieve the same amount of alcohol from "near beer", you would need to drink ten times as much. So the alcohol in 3 beers, equals the alcohol in 30 "non-alcohol" beers.

Do you have to inform dvla while on 30ml methadone?

You must inform the DVLA if you have a notifiable health condition, but you do not need to inform them of your medication. The legal limit for methadone is 30mg per litre of blood. You should seek medical advice as to whether your dose would mean you would be unfit to drive. Even if you are below the legal limit, do not drive if you feel your judgement or reaction time is impaired.

Does it take only three beers for someone under 18 to be legally drunk in Ohio?

Most states restrict underage drinking, and anyone under 21 is held to a 0.00 limit. BTW, 3 beers within a relatively short period of time would bring most people near the .08 limit. You would need to refer to a chart or even more accurately, submit to a breath test to determine if you are close to the .08 limit.


If I had 5 beers alcohol content in 4 hrs and took blood test 4 hrs later would i be legally drunk at 170 pounds?

To determine if you would be legally drunk after consuming 5 beers over 4 hours, we need to consider the average alcohol content and your body weight. Generally, a standard beer contains about 0.6 ounces of pure alcohol, and the legal limit for blood alcohol concentration (BAC) in most places is 0.08%. For a 170-pound person, drinking 5 beers could potentially lead to a BAC above the legal limit, especially after an additional 4-hour period, as alcohol continues to metabolize. However, individual factors like metabolism, food intake, and drinking pace can affect the exact BAC.

It depends on the average speed which, in turn, depends on what the car is capable of, the speed limit(s), road conditions, traffic, stoppages. At 20 mph, the speed limit on my road, it would take 33.5 days! On a UK motorway, staying within the legal speed limit, just over 9.5 hours.

Home breathalysers can quickley and easily inform someone if they are over the drink-drive alcohol limit. They give a correct reading of the level of intoxiation and can therefore warn someone if they are over or are approaching the legal alcohol driving limit.
