In the UK, the legal limit for blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is 0.08% in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, and 0.05% in Scotland. The number of units of alcohol that can be consumed before reaching this limit varies by individual, as factors like weight, sex, and metabolism play a role. Generally, it's estimated that consuming around two to three units may keep most people below the limit, but it's safest to avoid drinking altogether if you plan to drive. Always check local guidelines and consider using alternative transportation if you've consumed any alcohol.
